A lot of people a saying I got the name of the guy from the front of the notes wrong - I didn't, he just has a similar name to the first Prime Minister (on the back of the 50). One is Tuanku Abdul Rahman, and the other is Tunku Abdul Rahman respectively. I did however incorrectly state that Mt Kinabalu is the tallest mountain in South East Asia - it's not.

The word 'VOID' is there because when you scan or photocopy it, it makes the word 'VOID' appear very boldly. This security feature is also used on cheques, and prescription forms. If you notice, the pattern which the word 'VOID' is printed in, is in contrast to the pattern around it which is what makes it appear boldly when scanned or photocopied.

3:01 - Under normal circumstances, the word VOID blends in and isn't too noticeable, but when scanners and copiers and such read it, they end up picking it up and the result shows "VOID" a lot more prominently. It's like using infrared for some things because it's invisible to the (human) eye, but it's detectable to cameras or more numismatically, adding UV-reactive stuff to bills. Checks/cheques (remember those) had the same thing.

as a Malaysian, I never knew that RM600 and RM60 banknotes existed! very informative. Also, a fun fact is that the words "bank negara Malaysia" mean national Bank of Malaysia. (literal translation is bank national Malaysia)

I'm Malaysian but you know better than me. Wow, they looked cool under UV light. Gonna share this in my whatsapp group. Thank you!

Three more fun facts: 1. If you look close enough near the Tengkolok which is the hat of Tuanku Abdul Rahman, just above the star and you will see his regnal name which is Seri Paduka Baginda Yang Di Pertua Agong Pertama Al Marhum Tuanku Abdul Rahman Ibni Al Marhum Tuanku Muhammad. On the latest series of banknote, only the RM50 doesn't have it. You might need to use a camera to zoom in on it because it's really hard to pick up by naked eye. 2. The tip of the Tengkolok is made up of Mount Kinabalu. 3. If you look at the right side of the banknote, just above the ear of Tuanku Abdul Rahman, you will see a bird lying next to the Tengkolok. Unfortunately I don't know which species is it but my best guess is the Asian Fairy Blue Bird.

Thank you for reviewing my country's bank notes. It is very well researched that some of the things you pointed out I didn't even know e.g the UV glow patterns! If you notice the RM50 note is quite distinct from its friends because IIRC it's the first to get a design upgrade from the really old 70s designs. It's also the first to get the new tech e.g. the holographic strip. For an interesting money-related titbit: The logo of the National Savings Bank of Malaysia is in the form of the "pokok pitis" or "coin tree". It was how the old state of Kelantan used to smelt their money into metal trees, and then you pluck the coins off the tree. A motif of the Kelantan State, the kijang (barking deer), also made its way into the central bank's logo that you've shown. Hopefully you do eventually get a hold of the RM60 and RM600 notes for an update video!

There are only 14 kings on the RM60 and RM600 notes. The sultan of Kedah was king twice between 1957 to 2017 and as such his portrait was printed twice. Also these notes celebrate the signing of the independence agreement, and not independence of Malaysia. Back in 1957, the country was known as Malaya, before Sarawak and Sabah joined as Malaysia in 1963.

Only recently discovered this channel and have been catching up on the banknotes series...I'm so envious of all these countries and their exciting currency! I try to comfort myself by reminding myself that I very rarely use cash now and thus am not constantly reminded of my aesthetically boring currency...just my aesthetically boring bank cards lolol

My mom "borrows" my money without my consent, it's frustrating really and I really can't get it through with her. Talk about weird middle class.

@@imthecoolest50 Your friends really are something. I know it's not wrong to give/borrow money to your parents but there is a limit to how far that can go. Too much then actions must be taken. you're in uni, an adult (young adult, right?). If you still have this problem with your parents, then you should and must talk it out before they depend _too much_ on you (I know this is rather rude but your parents should've saved some money to use themselves instead of taking from their son, even if they're old, they should've saved money when they could). Be careful on how talk it out, your parents has the high ground, but play your cards right and you might be free. My friends agreed that my mum can be quite a scum for taking my money without consent (I'm not rude here. It's the truth). I even have the morals to never steal money, I would still return the spare change from what my mum lend me, my mum gets very picky about this.

Yes, this is what it is. A lot of official documents have this. An example is my birth certificate, wich instead of void says another word, but that is the same concept. The word becomes black on a copy, and so is by no doubt, a copy. You’d be surprised how many documents have this when it comes to licenses, IDs, court documents, currencies, certificates and all. Documents having void on it are not necessarily invalid for what you use it for. It just means that it is not the original, but a photocopy of the document, wich is still accepted by many organizations, when sent by mail, email, or fax. When you are physically there however, they will usually ask for the real one. For currency however, it is always invalid

I believe the VOID is a security feature that shows up if you were to photo copy it. Yes you can kind of see it there- but there is a technology where something is fairly light to the naked eye, but then lights up like crazy on a scan or photo copy. I use special printer paper sometimes for important documents that has this feature, and you can see "void" very lightly if you look hard enough.
