What does this paragraph mean?

Paragraph>>>
The Mexican peso also served as the model for the Straits dollar (now the Singapore/Brunei Dollar), the Hong Kong dollar, the Japanese yen and the Chinese yuan. The term Chinese yuan refers to the round Spanish dollars, Mexican pesos and other 8 reales silver coins which saw use in China during the 19th and 20th century.

Question:
I'm not sure about it, does it say the early Singapore dollar/hkd/chinese yuan used Mexican peso as their currency models? During the 19th and 20th century Mexican peso was used in China?

Thank you.
