I was reading this news article today and it was kinda one that hinges on sensationalism that journalism sometimes portray and people drool about. And I just couldn’t figure out how the maths in this worked. Maybe this is a sign that Maldives is gearing up to combat the economic recession?
half a million (ބައި މިލިޔަން ރުފިޔާ) = fifty thousand (ފަންސާސް ހާސް ރުފިޔާ)

Maybe someone could explain it to me? Preferably in laymen terms, using less than 200 words?

I think the math is correct...if one should consider the real inflation rate of this country at which level the Rufiyaa 500,000 is really worth just 50,000 of Nasir dhauru Rufiyaa.
Tell me about it. And this lot go about pretending to be professional journalists.
Simple. "bai" means part. 50,000 is part of a million.
