bcos MYR is not big dominant..right..SG is.

furthermore it is hoped that a lower MYR value, will boost the export decline as well.

how is this going to happen?

Lower currency rates boost exports, because our exports will become comparatively cheaper.

Eg;

1 PC Malaysia makes cost 5k ringgit, which equals 1k pounds in the UK

with a lower exchange rate, the cost of the same PC is still 5k ringgit, but not it's 700 pounds in the UK and thus cheaper to buy with the pound.

This lower price is attractive to importers and gives them a huge incentive to buy Malaysian. China artificially keeps their money down by force to make sure their products are cost favourable in the international markets.

so mean double work for parents to send money lah?

yes , how to survive ?

thank you for elaborating my point further. not just in regards to export, it is also an incentive to lure investors back. heck, even china is losing its comparative advantage (despite proclaiming itself as a capitalist, they still run ala communism) to countries like vietnam.


@ KVReninem

frankly speaking, the so-called burden of our parents is the least of government's concern. that is probably the last thing on their mind. sorry to burst your bubbles.

i don't see how we cannot survive the ever escalating exchange rates.
