The Malaysian ringgit weakened against the U.S. dollar in the pre-European session on Friday, as regional shares fell after Britain decided to leave the European Union in its historic referendum.

Against the greenback, the ringgit fell to a 3-week low of 6.1425 from an early 1-1/2-month high of 3.9898. At yesterday's close, the ringgit was trading at 4.0130 against the greenback.

If the ringgit extends its downtrend, it is likely to find support around the 4.22 area.
