[QUOTE="Mika, post: 231051, member: 29399"] The government borrows money from multiple sources, from the public, from the local businesses and companies, from local banks. Sometimes one government agency also borrows from another government agency (for example, a road department can borrow money from the finance department). These are internal loans, which means the government has mainly borrowed from the companies and organizations within the country as well as from its own people. However, internal loans consist of a very small percentage of the government's borrowing. The government mainly borrows from other countries, international agencies, foreign companies, etc. For example, Sri Lanka has borrowed a lot of money from the Chinese government as well as Chinese companies. Recently, Sri Lanka has asked for a loan from the Indian Government. India on the other hand borrows from international agencies like World Bank, Asian Development Bank, etc. When the government pays back the international loan, it will have to pay in USD. Government cannot simply print a lot of currency notes and pay back the international loan, the government needs USD to pay back loan. Furthermore, when the government prints a lot of money, the value of money will depreciate, the purchasing power parity will decrease, inflation will increase. [/QUOTE]
