Here is what is in my wallet today:
Anywhere else in the world, I would be relatively rich. I could buy shoes, a nice meal in a posh restaurant, concert tickets, a painting, fancy champagne, or maybe even one of those Linux-based laptops for children in poor countries. In the DRC, however, these three bank notes buy me absolutely nothing. Not even a loaf of bread. Yet everyone accepts dollars here, just not these particular dollars. Why not?

They only accept fake dollars.
They are old style dollars which DRC and the Philippines in their wisdom have decided not to acknowledge anymore - probably because most of them are fake or easy to fake.

They do not accept those particular bills since they are the new bills/models that have been put out into circulation. They are still using the older version bills in the DRC.
