Bank Negara Malaysia has announced that the new Malaysian banknotes series will be introduced into circulation from 16 July 2012, replacing the current series that has been in circulation for over ten years. Themed ‘Distinctively Malaysia’, the banknotes feature intricate illustrations of the nation’s culture and traditions.
In this series, the RM2 banknote was no longer issued, while a new RM20 banknote was included in the line-up. This new series of banknote will co-circulate with the existing banknotes which remain as legal tender.
