Hence, this study analyses the time series data of exchange rate and industrial product export by means of advanced statistical methodologies, the regression analysis and Johansen’s cointegration test. In the same way, as the overall export and the agricultural product export, the regression analysis finds that the exchange rate is negatively correlated to the agricultural product export but Johansen’s cointegration test results contrariwise that there is no cointegrating relationship in-between. Therefore, such claim even just on industrial products, is not an error made in good faith but another example of domineering discourses enabling the elites to take advantages by disguising them as knowledge and truths, over which the other members in the society dare not to doubt nor dispute.
