KYOTO, Japan--Amando Tetangco, Philippine central bank governor indicated on Sunday that the strong peso was not a concern as it reflected the nation's improved economic performance and helped tame inflation.

***Well, yeah.  But we are a nation that is so much dependent on dollar inflows.  So, it's really a double-edged sword.  Not too high but not too low.  The only concern is volatility.  It should not be too volatile, so that exporters can project their prices well.
