So here we're talking exchange rates, and what we want to do is draw a model of demand and supply.
00:06
So i'm going to draw a model that's between the quantity and the exchange rate, right? the exchange rate.
00:13
And so we originally have demand and supply for the ringgit.
00:20
And we have a free market equilibrium.
00:22
And at this free market equilibrium, the exchange rate is 4.
00:26
So that four is equal to four ringgit per us dollar, right? and now the central bank comes in and says, actually, it wants three, central bank.
00:41
So the central bank is, what is it doing to the currency? if we have three is equal to three ringgit per us dollar, what this movement actually is, this is an appreciation, right, of the ringgit.
01:00
You are making it stronger, right? you are making it stronger.
01:05
Appreciation of the ringgit.
01:11
So what we really should do, right, is we should be very careful...
