content: I just recently moved back to my native Sweden after living in Kuala Lumpur for like 8 years....I guess is that if you'd be able to find anything off-the-shelf locally there it would be a low-end previous-generation scope. Personally I would have ordered it from Element14 (Farnell) that couriers everything overnight for free to Malaysia.Going to Penang island? Then be sure to visit their makerspace (Penang Science Cluster) in downtown Georgetown. They are sponsored (among others) by Agilent/Keysight and have a metric shitton of their equipment. I think it's possible to get a tour at the Agilent/Keysight factories located in Penang as well, but not 100% sure there.
