Rate conversion in paypal non-support currency

I have an issue with the amount charge to customer. I'm aware that paypal doesn't support malaysia currency. When customer purchase, paypal charge the same malaysia currency in USD. Is there anyway to change in zencart to automatically convert malaysia currency to USD when customer made payment in Malaysia currency via paypal express checkout?

Set your Zen Cart PayPal module to use "Use USD Only", and set the correct exchange rate for Malasia-to-USD in your Admin->Locations->Currencies section. You'll need to keep the exchange rate up-to-date manually.
