Initially pegged to the Australian dollar, it has since 1991 been pegg...ed to a basket of currencies: the Australian and New Zealand dollars, the US dollar and the Japanese yen. Paanga was introduced on April 3, 1967. He replaced the pound at the rate of 1 pound = 2 paang. Until 11 February 1991, the paanga was pegged to the Australian dollar at par. Since then, a basket of currencies has been taken (see above) and the paanga has steadily declined. As in 2006, it takes about 1.60 T$ to get 1 Australian dollar.
