 <p>The Prime Minister was answering questions from lawmakers on the steps his government was taking to ensure the Ringgit’s stability. The Parliament session addressed Ringgit’s historical lows against the US dollar as it dipped 7.6% against the USD this year.</p>
 <h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-malaysia-follows-brics-footsteps-to-stop-using-the-us-dollar">Malaysia Follows BRICS Footsteps To Stop Using the US Dollar</h2>
 <p>Inspired by BRICS, Malaysia is following similar ideas to ensure the decline of the US dollar. The Ringgit could stabilize if the country pushes it forward in the international markets for trade deals worth billions. Malaysia is now experiencing structural reforms and could eventually reduce the US dollar usage over time.</p>
 <p><strong>“Malaysia would implement structural reforms that can attract investments and boost the economy, which would bolster the local currency,”</strong> Ibrahim summed it up.</p>
