A Malaysian going by the alias of 李民 on Facebook recently posted in the Facebook group KL娱乐站 a photo of thick wads of 50 and 100 Ringgit (RM) bills being kept in carton boxes, plastic bags and strewn over the floor.
The Malaysian also captioned his post in Chinese “钱放银行不安全了，还是收藏在家比较安全” which translates to “It is no longer safe to put cash in the bank, keeping it at home should be safer.”
Here is his post
“钱放银行不安全了，还是收藏在家比较安全”
