Currencies are generally expressed using concepts, rather than names. Examples: dollar, euro, ruble, yuan Exception: currency modifiers that are named entities (e.g. the "US" in "US$")

In particular, the annotation for Chinese yuan renminbi (RMB) has been somewhat inconsistent. I propose to annotate renminbi/RMB as follows. Include "yuan" even when not explicitly mentioned. But do not include "renminbi" unless explicitly mentioned.

China spent 430 billion yuan RMB on water conservation.

(s / spend-01
  :ARG0 (c / country :name (n / name :op1 "China"))
  :ARG1 (c2 / conserve-01
           :ARG1 (w / water))
  :ARG3 (m / monetary-quantity :quant 430000000000
           :unit (y / yuan
                   :mod (r / renminbi))))
