Yangon, April 2 (IANS) The Central Bank of Myanmar Monday set a new exchange rate for its currency kyat. It has set 818 kyat per US dollar.

The bank published the rate on its website, along with cross rates for other currencies. The kyat's unofficial rate had jumped to 1,000 per dollar in 2009, as the foreign money flowed into the country's energy sector, the Mizzima News reported.
