Hi! I m from Bangladesh and I have visited a few of the SEA countries and found some of them wear Sarong (Lungi) type apparels at home or in ceremonial dresses.I d suggest you to explore Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, Singapore, Indonesia and Malaysia and such South East Asian countries where they call it Sarong. The design and materials used are different though.You may also target countries where Bangladeshi or Bengali speaking population are quite large and department stores are operated by Bengali people where they would consider keeping Lungi/Sarong for their specific clients. Like in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, Korea and many countries in the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE. Oman, Qatar, Libya, Egypt, Jordan even in India also.Best of luck with your venture.

What government took over printing money? -
In the Free Banking Era , from 1791 to the Civil War, even banks issued their own currency. The states and colonies issued money at various times in their history, from their founding, but was stopped in the 1860s.Here s a pretty good history of American money:In our society today, money s value is measured by what it can buy--its purchasing power--not by its material worth, but it hasn t always been so. American currency has spanned centuries of evolution and numerous transfigurations to reach the size and shape that we carry in our wallets today. It has been an evolutionary process which often came about in times of crisis--like the Civil War or Great Depression--or to respond to demand as society struggled to put into place a monetary system that would function smoothly and inspire confidence. This development process is ongoing and continues even now as redesigned currency is issued in 1996. But the legacy of the process is a rich heritage of United States currency that gives us a fascinating, colorful, and reflective glimpse into the growth of our nation.The Federal Reserve Bank has a special interest in this subject. As part of our role as the government s central bank we are responsible for putting currency, as well as coin, into circulation. Indeed, the warehousing, shipping, processing, and handling of currency are major functions of the regional Reserve banks.Colonial and Continental CurrencyThe Massachusetts Bay Colony issued the first paper money in the colonies in 1690. Other colonies soon followed suit to meet the high demand for money fueled by trade between the colonies and the scarcity of coin (which was the common form of money up to this date). Some of this early money was readily accepted, but some was not redeemed in gold or silver as promised and thus depreciated rapidly. These currencies, however, set a precedent for the first national currency which was issued during the War for Independence.To finance the Revolutionary War, the Continental Congress in 1775 authorized the limited issuance of paper currency. These notes, called Continentals, were denominated in dollars and backed by the anticipation of future tax revenues, with no backing in silver or gold. They could be redeemed only upon the independence of the colonies.Continentals were an interesting expression of the new nation s sovereignty, as they did not feature pictures of the crown or King of England. In fact, some were printed from plates engraved by Paul Revere to read The United Colonies and bore pictures of colonial minutemen.Without solid backing and with rising inflation, the Continentals soon became worthless, thus the expression not worth a Continental. Or, as George Washington put it, A wagonload of currency will hardly purchase a wagonload of provisions. In 1777 after the Declaration of Independence was signed, the first notes bearing the words The United States were issued and signed by well-known revolutionary figures to give them credibility.The remnant of this experience was a deep distrust of paper money which was not issued again by the federal authorities until the Civil War when the Federal government first issued paper money. The Continental was significant, however, in that it marked the first time that the worth of U.S. currency lay in its purchasing power and not in its intrinsic value.Free Banking EraIn 1791 the Bank of the United States received a charter to operate until 1811, followed by the Second Bank of the United States from 1816 to 1836. These two banks, chartered by Congress rather than a state, performed several central bank functions. Although privately owned, they were authorized to issue paper bank notes and serve as the fiscal agent of the government. Both banks, however, were unpopular with those wanting easy credit--primarily the western, agrarian interests--and in 1832 Andrew Jackson vetoed the recharter of the Second Bank.Thus followed the Free Banking Era --a quarter century in which American banking was a hodgepodge of state-chartered banks with no federal regulation or uniformity in operating laws. State Bank notes of various sizes, shapes, and designs were in circulation. Some of them were relatively safe and exchanged for par value and others were relatively worthless as speculators and counterfeiters flourished. By 1860, an estimated 8,000 different state banks were circulating wildcat or broken bank notes in denominations from ? cent to $20,000. The nickname wildcat referred to banks in mountainous and other remote regions that were said to be more accessible to wildcats than customers, making it difficult for people to redeem these notes. The broken bank notes took their name from the frequency with which some of the banks failed, or went broke.Civil WarOnce again the need to finance a war provided the impetus for a change in the monetary system. In 1861, to finance the Civil War, Congress authorized Demand Notes--the first i
The Us Govertment was strapped for cash or hard coin also known as specie during the Civil War and started to print what was called Green Backs because they had green backs. One of the reasons for the paper money was that it was easier to pay the thousands of soliders in the fired. Paper is a lot easier to handle then heavy coins. They were silver certificates and some were gold. That meant that the paper money could be exchanged for gold or silver at any federal bank. We went off the silver and gold standard during WWII. We no longer had the hard silver or gold to back what was in circulation. States did not print money they authorized banks to issue bank certificates that could be used for a medium of exchange. It did not work well because many banks out of state would not recoganize the certificate.
You might benefit from knowing that there are at least two kinds of paper money : backed and fiat.Backed currency has an equivalent amount of something like gold or silver stashed away somewhere. The old gold or silver certificate bills, from like before 1965, could in theory be exchanged for gold or silver. fiat notes have no backing, except the likelyhood that tomorrow someone will accept it as having value.

How do you collect on a bounced check? -
Send her a letter or call her and be courteous but firm that she must come in with cash and pay her bill. Give her 24 hours and if she does not respond just go to the police because it is against the law to write a check without there being a current open account.
Call your customer and make her aware of the bounce check and see if she has other means of payment. If she does not tell her you are going to the police and charges will be filed. Other option dont even bother calling your customer and go straight to the police. Before you go to the police make sure you have a statement from the bank where she banks at stating that the funds are not available. Make a copy of the check and statement for your records and go to the police. Then go to small claims court sue your customer for the amount of the check and court cost and filing fees. Good luck.
What are the machines needed for manufacturing detergent cakes. And what would be the initial startup cost? -
Laundry detergents are actually a mixture of a detergent and a vegetable gum that traps dirt and prevents it from being redeposited on the clothes. Unless you have millions of tens of millions of dollars to invest you will be buying your feed materials. The machinery to mix the detergent and press it into cakes is available off the shelf and would probably cost in the half million to one and a half million dollar range. I should tell you that this idea has been tried before and was not a success.

Is Amway Global legit? -
Amway is a company which has been around for 50 years and had $8+ billion in sales for 2008.
Amway global is not a scam.However, if you do not have time to run a business or do not have the temperment to cold call people and try to sell them toilet paper, toothbrushes, laundry soap, etal, don t go.Somebody at Amway has to be the one actually SELLING product. Not everyone can be a manager.
don t even bother. it is a deceptive multi level marketing scheme where only your upline/team leader makes profit from suckering people who don t do their research are are generally gullible. i had a friend who went into that all fired up but eventually quit after 3 years of not making any real money. all the money you make you spend on out of pocket expenses like learning material and events. the real way uplines make money is by selling you the learning tools NOT by buying the over priced products online which you will have to pay shipping for.
