China is doing the same (although through different more heavy handed means). The true price of the YUAN is HIGHER than the official government rate. The government is INTENTIONALLY keeping the yuan down to make Chinese exports cheaper throughout the world. This has serious inflation consequences but it seems to be working--almost everything that requires little to mid tech manufacturing capability is made in China
