Version 0.34 (2024-03-08 02:21:16.005000)

updates: The Malaysian government is facing political problems due to the depreciating ringgit. The value of the ringgit has fallen to RM4.80 to the US dollar, the highest level since September 1998. The depreciation is driven by factors such as the significant difference in interest rates with the US, high government debt, consistently high budget deficits, and the risk of default. The slowdown in the Chinese economy has also contributed to a decline in Malaysian exports to China. To address the issue, the government has encouraged large Malaysian investors to repatriate funds to support the ringgit. However, the government's decision to cut subsidies on food and fuel is expected to lead to an explosive political situation. Additionally, the proposal to remove defined-benefit pension payments for new public servants has sparked concerns among pensioners. The Malaysian government is also facing pressure to reintroduce the goods and services tax.
