OMG what horror. The paper bill 1 ringgit note was supposely extinct and it made a comeback? 1 ringgit coin are heavily counterfeited? But who exactly would want to counterfeit as low as 25cents... :|

I swear redesigning a new 1 ringgit coin will solve a lot of problems...

what seems wacky is that the coins are being abandoned for paper ... afaik, paper is usually easier to counterfeit, right?
