QUOTE(sgwc @ Aug 14 2013, 08:22 PM) I don't mind us having low rm value than any other currency. Maybe gomen is focusing more on exports than imports. What worries me is our debt to gdp ratio. Almost 55% edi. Gomen can no longer borrow from the public so this indicates that we're going to have gst implemented. the 55% thing is really just a govt created limit, which they can extend if need be.
