Accommodation, food, local transport (public transit, taxis/rideshares), and activities/entrance fees for one person. It does not include international flights, which depend too much on your departure city and booking timing to estimate generically.
Book accommodation and flights within the optimal booking window rather than last-minute, eat where locals eat rather than at tourist-area restaurants, use public transit instead of taxis, and mix free activities with a few paid highlights.
At roughly $55/day mid-range, Kuala Lumpur is one of the more affordable destinations for the same standard of travel.
