Is foreign currency payments accepted?

  • 2010-07-01

The answer is NO.

You could only pay in Ringgit-Malaysia for all kind of payment. Some souvenir shops might accept specific/major  foreign notes, eg. US Dollar, Euro, Sterling Pound, Australian Dollar and Chinese Renminbi, but the exchange rate is terrible.

Spending money is inevitable. Therefore, prepared your Ringgit-Malaysia is a must.
