This may seems a very easy question, but it is frequent one - trust me, I receive several emails everyday from visitors to Shanghai, and many people got confused of the difference between RMB and Yuan. For example, yesterday, when I answer a question with 2500 RMB, my reader asked: Is RMB and Yuan the same thing?

Yes. It is the same. RMB is the abbr. of Ren Min Bi, or the People's Money. It is the official currency (maybe the only one) in China.

Yuan is the base unit for RMB - just as Dollar in USD. This is the currency system in China:

分 Fen cent
角 Jiao dime
圆 Yuan dollar

The first characters (you may not be able to see them if your computer don't have Chinese font support) are the Chinese character of the currency unit. The second is its Pinyin / English name, and the last one is the counterpart in USD.

So Yuan and RMB is not always the same (as Yuan is just one of the currency units in RMB), but they can often be used interchangeably. 2500 RMB and 2500 Yuan is exactly the same amount of money.

haha putra angry liao....Told you...

Malaysian Chinese also using the same China denomination for ringgit mah:

yuan or Qwai = Dollar/ringgit
Jiao = sen /cent
fen = as in wufen (5 cent) or yefen (1 cent)

Similar system also in almost all Far east-lah...Japan using the same yen, koren - Won & Vietnam - Dong..almost similar sounding for Yuan

Where can I get better rate for Thai Baht coz I see Wawasan rate is RM10.45 - THB100

Yesterday in Carrefour Puchong RMB50.40

Based on BNM rate Today rate of 49.65 http://www.bnm.gov.my/statistics/exchangerates.php it's abit pricey lor..If can get exactly RMB50 or 50.20 should be good liao. Anyway, wawasana rate still not updated ...meaning they are still facing licensing problem. The surrounding MV probably ~ 50.30 based on my last tmth comparison wth Puchong. The Ikano side -opposite Uncle Lim probably ~ 50.30 and I think those in front of BB plaza even lower 

Done a comparison wth MV & front of BB Plaza Starbucks money changers Yesterday.. Overall, those in front of BB Plaza pawned MV!

For eg..the selling rate of following that I can recall:

US - MV- 3.04 , BB - 3.02
Japanese Yen - MV - 40.00, BB - 39.80
Korean Won - MV -2.85, BB 2.82

Meaning at this moment, Those money changers fronting Starbucks BB Plaza better than MV for sure.
