I query about the FD conversion as of 1.8% × 3 thus FD convert back to MY would be 5.4%. Is this even legit

You can't count like this, you already convert yr MYR to SGD already.

Need to use the same currency..

Borrow my friends explanation.
Put in amanah:
RM50000 x 4%pa = RM2000 interest

Put in cimb sg:
$16667 (RM50000) x 1.8%pa = S$300 (RM900) interest.

Your x 3 is the conversion rate, not the multiplication of interest.

XP or else I'd go pound (x5) or USD (x4)
