Does anyone know where I can exchange South African Rands for Yuan (RMB)? Or is anyone interested in making such an exchange? Thanks

None that I am aware of. I had same problem last time when I went back China, I could't exchange NZD cash with any banks.

At the end, I exchanged the money with a "scalper" who hung around in the banks (normally Bank of China)all day waiting for business. I made sure the RMB are genuine by depositing them in ATM machine straight away.

I know it is a bit naughty, but I was desperate for cash! I am pretty amazed that the bank doesn't care at all...

I hope this would help!
