The Reserve Bank has again raised interest rates blaming high inflation which it says is eroding savings and hurting family budgets. It has raised the cash rate by a quarter of a per cent to 4.1 per cent. That's the 12th rise in just over a year and the highest rate in 11 years. That story by Naveen Razik for SBS News, produced by Praba Maheswaran for SBS Tamil.
