KUALA LUMPUR: Bank Negara has addressed an error in the exchange rate for the ringgit against the US dollar published by Google on Feb 5, 2024.
The central bank said in a statement the exchange rate for the US$/RM was misreported on Google as 6.24.
A check on the search engine showed the exchange rate spiking to 6.2390 at 8am Malaysian time on Feb 5 before returning to 4.7503 a half hour later.

“Members of the public are advised to exercise caution against using unverifiable sources as a reference for the ringgit,” Bank Negara cautioned.
