**Subject: Request to Adhere to Payment Currency as per Agreement**
Dear Jin Pin,
Thank you for your response and for reviewing the agreement. While I appreciate your perspective, I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate that, as per the terms of our agreement, all payments are to be made in the currency designated for the project. While I understand that the USD table has been referenced for calculation purposes, this was never intended to be "adopted" to replace the formal currency agreed upon in the contract. This has created a grey, ambiguous area of interpretation.
Switching to USD introduces unnecessary complications and may potentially lead to inconsistencies in the financial calculations. By adhering to the contract and making the payment in the project’s designated currency, we can ensure clarity, transparency, and consistency, avoiding any misunderstandings or discrepancies.
I kindly request that, moving forward, the final payment reflects the project currency, as this will help us maintain the smooth and professional relationship we have developed over time.
I trust you understand the importance of adhering to the agreed terms. Please feel free to reach out if you have any concerns or if there is anything you would like to discuss. I appreciate your understanding and cooperation and look forward to completing this matter in accordance with our agreement.
Best regards,
Kashif Khan

Subject: Addressing Ambiguities in Contract Payment Terms
Dear Mr. Kashif Khan,
I hope this letter finds you well.
Upon reviewing the contract, I have identified an ambiguous section regarding the payment terms. The table in the contract specifies amounts in USD, however, the contract itself stipulates that payments should be made in the designated contract currency. This discrepancy can lead to misunderstandings and potential disputes.
To address this issue efficiently, I recommend the following steps:
*. Clarify Currency Conversion:
- Specify the exact conversion rate to be used if payments are to be made in a different currency. This will eliminate any ambiguity regarding the amounts to be paid and received.
*. Amend the Contract:
- Clearly state whether the amounts specified in the table are indicative or final. Confirm the payment currency explicitly in the contract to avoid any discrepancies.
- Ensure that both parties agree to the clarified terms in writing, which will help avoid future conflicts.
*. Document the Discrepancy:
- Keep a record of all communications and documentation related to this issue. This will be useful in case of any disputes thatmay arise in the future.
