Second thought: Maybe they are just *greedy*. So it's the customer's job to actually correct this. Sigh. <strong>Mr Beagle</strong>: I think they are just doing it for convenience sake. Otherwise it will cause more hassle for the system programmers and also the accounting staff.

Just because of the rounding mechanism, you now see 1 sen lying around as if they are rubbish when it is still actually legal tender. What I do now is collect them then use them to pay toll! ;) <strong>Mr Beagle</strong>: Toll booths still accept them? I'll do that then! I so agree!
