I'm not sure a link to this page belongs in the main currency page. I'm also not sure why the reference should only be to Singapore, since notes bearing the banana design were issued throughout Malaya and the Netherlands Indies.

One and a half years on, and no work was done, pitiful. Anyway, there were also unathorised one-sided copies of the $10 bill used as Allied air-dropped leaflets warning of the impending uselessness of the currency once the Japanese were defeated, as well as banana notes converted into war souvenirs. Will look into a Malaysian currency book for reference, followed by a revision of the article. - Two hundred percent (talk) 07:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

The Japanese government-issued dollar was a form of currency issued between 1942 and 1945 for use within the territories of Singapore, Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak and Brunei, under occupation by Imperial Japan during World War II. The currency, informally referred to as "banana money", was released solely in the form of banknotes, as metals were considered essential to the war effort. The languages used on the notes were reduced to English and Japanese. Each note bears a different obverse and reverse design, but all have a similar layout, and were marked with stamped block letters that begin with "M" for "Malaya". This 1942 one-cent Japanese-issued banknote is part of the National Numismatic Collection at the Smithsonian Institution.
