First of all, let’s break down both Fig A and Fig B. Fig A describes the general journey of the Malaysian Ringgit across the last year, up to June 2022 — showing that as of June 16, the Malaysian Ringgit is at 0.3157 SGD. While it has bounced back from the huge dip in May, it is still significantly lower than what it was just a few months ago in March. Similarly, in Fig B, you’re looking at the monthly average of 100 units of Malaysian Ringgit per SGD. While June’s average rates have yet to be released, you can clearly see that the average monthly rate is now at the lowest its been in a whole year.
