I miss 'Najib goes down, ringgit goes up' slogan - Akmal Saleh
The last time the lowest level of the ringgit was recorded was in 1998 when the Asian financial crisis affected the regional currency at RM4.885 per US dollar.
SHAH ALAM – Umno Youth Chief Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh mocked the current economic situation by linking the slogan that the depreciation of the national ringgit has something to do with the performance of the administration of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
Akmal said that he missed the slogan which stated that the value of the ringgit would rise again if Najib steps down from his position as Prime Minister.
"Najib goes down, ringgit goes up. Really miss this slogan," he said in a Facebook post on Tuesday.
Prior to that, the local currency recorded a weak performance as of 9am Tuesday with the ringgit decreasing to 4.787/7930 against the United States (US) dollar from 4.785/7890 when the market closed on Monday.
