Ringgit opens higher as crude prices rise

KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit opened higher against the US dollar today, fuelled by increasing oil prices because of the anticipated lower production and ahead of US economic data expectations.

At 9.01am, the local currency rose to 4.1180/1240 against the greenback from Monday's close of 4.1220/1270.
