Abstract
Currently, interest rate hike is usually triggered by the rise in inflation. When there is a high inflation, then, interest rate hike will be implemented to cool down the market. However, is this a good indicator for interest rate hike. From the lesson in the Financial Tsunami, we may need to revise the policy on timing of interest rate hike.
