Asked about claims that some money changers in Singapore had run out of the ringgit since early this month, Mohamed said that many of them didn’t want to hold too much ringgit as they didn’t want to incur losses.
He added that the price war among money changers was not just a problem in Malaysia, but they were also forced to compete with Singaporean money changers who were offering better rates than those in Johor.
