The ringgit was strong in the 80's although the country was under developed compared to the business environment today, where the value of ringgit has gone down the drain because of corruption and poor governance standard.

[@davidtee739]

Those are the old day when Malaysia had a quality leader and know how to bring back their foreign plantation company from their colonial master to our country to develop the economy.These day we have a former Pm Najib that had a 1MDB company that swindle Malaysian taxpayer money and destroying the economy. In the future Malaysia will sell all their assets to a foreign country because we have incapable leader that only know greed and power.
