The Covid-19 Pandemic and Its Repercussions on the Malaysian Tourism Industry
Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Management, May-June 2021, Vol. 9, No. 3, 135-145 doi: 10.17265/2328-2169/2021.03.001 D D AV I D PUBLISHING The Covid-19 Pandemic and Its Repercussions on the Malaysian Tourism Industry Noriah Ramli, Majdah Zawawi International Islamic University Malaysia, Jalan Gombak, Malaysia The outbreak of the novel coronavirus (Covid-19) has hit the nation’s tourism sector hard. With the closure of borders, industry players should now realize that they cannot rely and focus too much on international receipts but should also give equal balance attention to local tourist and tourism products. Hence, urgent steps must be taken by the government to reduce the impact of this outbreak on the country’s economy, by introducing measures to boost domestic tourism and to satisfy the cravings of the tourism needs of the population. It is not an understatement that Malaysians often look for tourists’ destinations outside Malaysia for fun and adventure, ignoring the fact that Malaysia has a lot to offer to tourist in terms of sun, sea, culture, heritage, gastronomy, and adventure. National geography programs like “Tribal Chef” demonstrate how “experiential tourism” resonates with the young and adventurous, international and Malaysian alike. The main purpose of this paper is to give an insight about the effect of Covid-19 pandemic to the tourism and hospitality services industry in Malaysia. What is the immediate impact of Covid-19 pandemic on Malaysia’s tourism industry? What are the initiatives (stimulus package) taken by the Malaysian government in order to ensure tourism sustainability during Covid-19 pandemic? How to boost tourist confidence? How to revive Malaysia’s tourism industry? How local government agencies can help in promoting and coordinating domestic tourism? These are some of the questions which a response is provided in the paper.

Forecasting Malaysian Ringgit: Before and After the Global Crisis
ASIAN ACADEMY of MANAGEMENT JOURNAL of ACCOUNTING and FINANCE AAMJAF, Vol. 9, No. 2, 157–175, 2013 FORECASTING MALAYSIAN RINGGIT: BEFORE AND AFTER THE GLOBAL CRISIS Chan Tze-Haw1, Lye Chun Teck2 and Hooy Chee-Wooi3 1 Graduate School of Business, Universiti Sains Malaysia, 11800 Pulau Pinang, Malaysia 2 Faculty of Business, Multimedia University, Jalan Ayer Keroh Lama, 75450 Ayer Keroh, Melaka, Malaysia 3 School of Management, Universiti Sains Malaysia, 11800 Pulau Pinang, Malaysia *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The forecasting of exchange rates remains a difficult task due to global crises and authority interventions. This study employs the monetary-portfolio balance exchange rate model and its unrestricted version in the analysis of Malaysian Ringgit during the post- Bretton Wood era (1991M1–2012M12), before and after the subprime crisis. We compare two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) estimation procedures (MLFN and GRNN) with the random walks (RW) and the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) methods. The out-of- sample forecasting assessment reveals the following. First, the unrestricted model has superior forecasting performance compared to the original model during the 24-month forecasting horizon. Second, the ANNs have outperformed both the RW and VAR forecasts in all cases. Third, the MLFNs consistently outperform the GRNNs in both exchange rate models in all evaluation criteria. Fourth, forecasting performance is weakened when the post-subprime crisis period was included. In brief, economic fundamentals are still vital in forecasting the Malaysian Ringgit, but the monetary mechanism may not sufficiently work through foreign exchange adjustments in the short run due to global uncertainties. These findings are beneficial for policy making, investment modelling, and corporate planning.

Econ 690 Spring, 2019 C. Engel Answers to Homework 5 1
Econ 690 Spring, 2019 C. Engel Answers to Homework 5 1. Suppose the spot rate is CHF0.9976/$ in the spot market, and the 180-day forward rate is CHF0.9908/$. If the 180-day dollar interest rate is 3% p.a., what is the annualized 180-day interest rate on Swiss francs that would prevent arbitrage? Answer: Interest rate parity requires equality of the return to investing in CHF versus converting the CHF principal into dollars, investing the dollars, and selling the dollar principal plus interest in the forward market for CHF: 1 1 + ( ) = × (1 + ($)) × ( /$) ( /$) If we “de-annualize”� the dollar �interest rate, we find that the 180 day interest rate is 0.015. Hence, the Swiss franc interest rate that prevents arbitrage is 1 i(CHF) = × 1.015 × CHF0.9908/$ - 1 = 0.0081 CHF0.9976/$ If we annualize this value, we find 0.0081 × (100) × (360/180) = 1.62%. 2. As a trader for Goldman Sachs you see the following prices from two different banks: 1-year euro deposits/loans: 6.0% – 6.125% p.a. 1-year Malaysian ringgit deposits/loans: 10.5% – 10.625% p.a. Spot exchange rates: MYR 4.6602 / EUR – MYR 4.6622 / EUR 1-year forward exchange rates: MYR 4.9500 / EUR – MYR 4.9650 / EUR The interest rates are quoted on a 360-day year. Can you do a covered interest arbitrage? Answer: We need to check the two inequalities that characterize the absence of covered interest arbitrage. In the first, we will borrow euros at 6.125%, convert to ringgits in the spot market at MYR4.6602 / EUR, invest the ringgits at 10.5%, and sell the ringgit principal plus interest forward for euros at MYR4.9650 / EUR.

Kanchana Chokethaworna Prasert Chaitipa Thanes Sriwichailamphana Chukiat Chaiboonsrib aAssoc. Prof., Faculty of Economics, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailandd. bLecturer., Faculty of Economics, Chiang Mai University, Chiang Mai, Thailand. Abstract The international finance modelling of AEC’s currencies have to be investigated more on copula approach that tests as a standard tool in financial modelling. Probabilistic capability and exposure density function are looking how to obtain empirical data for the econometric modelling of time series for financial problems. A unique question for opportunity to study this issue in the financial field is how accurate are the predictions of Markov Switching Model in Dynamic Copula approach (MSDC) algorithm. Dependent structure and co-movement between which cover available daily data during the period 2006-2013 of currencies both Thai Baht (THB) and Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) were investigated. The model selection based on AIC and BIC confirmed that the Elliptical copula fitted for those currencies appreciated value to against the US dollar. The model selection based on AIC and BIC indicated that the Elliptical copula fitted for those currencies depreciated value to against the US dollar. The overall benefit is to give the applied researchers knowledge and information which researchers can understand and apply to obtain confirmation a new reliable knowledge of MSDC and protect the wealth of money market and safety every working day.

Modelling Australian Dollar Volatility at Multiple Horizons with High-Frequency Data
risks Article Modelling Australian Dollar Volatility at Multiple Horizons with High-Frequency Data Long Hai Vo 1,2 and Duc Hong Vo 3,* 1 Economics Department, Business School, The University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA 6009, Australia; [email protected] 2 Faculty of Finance, Banking and Business Administration, Quy Nhon University, Binh Dinh 560000, Vietnam 3 Business and Economics Research Group, Ho Chi Minh City Open University, Ho Chi Minh City 7000, Vietnam * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 July 2020; Accepted: 17 August 2020; Published: 26 August 2020 Abstract: Long-range dependency of the volatility of exchange-rate time series plays a crucial role in the evaluation of exchange-rate risks, in particular for the commodity currencies. The Australian dollar is currently holding the ﬁfth rank in the global top 10 most frequently traded currencies. The popularity of the Aussie dollar among currency traders belongs to the so-called three G’s—Geology, Geography and Government policy. The Australian economy is largely driven by commodities. The strength of the Australian dollar is counter-cyclical relative to other currencies and ties proximately to the geographical, commercial linkage with Asia and the commodity cycle. As such, we consider that the Australian dollar presents strong characteristics of the commodity currency. In this study, we provide an examination of the Australian dollar–US dollar rates. For the period from 18:05, 7th August 2019 to 9:25, 16th September 2019 with a total of 8481 observations, a wavelet-based approach that allows for modelling long-memory characteristics of this currency pair at diﬀerent trading horizons is used in our analysis.
