Local SIM vs travel eSIM. A Maxis, CelcomDigi or U Mobile tourist SIM from KLIA arrivals is often cheaper for long stays, but you queue and register your passport. A travel eSIM installed at home gets you online in the taxi line.

Networks. Local partner networks (Airalo plan: Sambungkan). Hotspot and fair-use rules differ by plan, so check the plan details on the provider's site before you buy.

Install it at home on Wi-Fi a day or two before you fly, but keep it switched off until you land, because many plans start their validity on first connection.
