Sounds like the visa rules are much more fsvorable than those of Thailand at present, but I would be concerned about the far more expensive cost of living in Malaysia. In thailand the cost of living is still much cheaper, even more so if you get out of Phuket, and as they are further behind in economic development prices should still stay much cheaper over the foreseeable future. Malaysia is much further Westernised than thailand and that equates to increased taxes, and much higher costs of living, they are basically following the singapore model.
I realise this will also happen in thailand, but they are still a long way further behind.
My other concern is about the fun police. I am not concerned that it is a muslim country as they are presently and have always beeen a stable country, but with increased muslim furver around the world I would be concerned that the will gradually bring in more restrictions to they way of life to try and reduce temptation to the population.
