Burma (Myanmar) has done this several times for the same declared reason, but with a batshit insane dictator with a predilection for numerology, so their demonetisations went like this:
1985: 50 and 100 kyat notes demonetized, replaced by 15, 35 and 75 kyat notes.
1987: 25, 35 and 75 kyat noted demonetized, replaced by 45 and 90 kyat notes.
