The Malaysian currency is Ringgit RM, and the exchange rate is approximately 1 RMB = 0.5 Ringgit, 1 USD = 3.2 Ringgit. RMB cannot be exchanged for Malaysian Ringgit in China, but it can be exchanged at any money exchange center (MoneyExchange) in Malaysia. It is not recommended to exchange large amounts of ringgit at the airport. Tourists only need to exchange a small amount of change at the airport, which is enough to pay for travel. However, it is best to exchange sufficient ringgit in Kuala Lumpur before coming to Penang, because there are not as many currency exchange points in Penang as in Kuala Lumpur, and the exchange rate is relatively lower. There are foreign currency exchange centers in airports, shopping malls and hotels (generally only banknotes are accepted). There is a MoneyChanger in every shopping mall, but the MoneyChanger in the city center has a slightly lower exchange rate. Most hotels impose an additional fee when accepting currency exchange. Traveler's checks must be exchanged at a bank. When traveling to rural areas, be sure to bring enough cash and change. It is not cost-effective to exchange Malaysian Ringgit at the airport. There are many more cost-effective exchange points in the city. If you are departing from Kuala Lumpur to other cities, it is best to exchange enough money in Kuala Lumpur before departure, because the exchange rate in other cities is lower than Kuala Lumpur, and old and damaged money will not be accepted. Tipping: It is not customary in Malaysia to tip. If you are satisfied with the service, you can tip 5-10 ringgit depending on the situation. When dining in a restaurant, the bill usually includes 6% government tax and 10% service tax, so no tip is required.
