At first I thought it might be an assassin bug, but the antennae are different. This is where google is your friend: just search for “malaysian insect species”. Most likely your little visitor is from the family Cerambycidae (longhorn beetles)

ganchan you are a genius lol.. well I can’t confirm 100%, but the insect look pretty much like spesies Massicus pascoei from family Cerambycidae. It has a simpler name, Thomson.

umm markings look abit different I think..
February 27th, 2006 at 4:52 pm
Yes, even the “neck” proportion seems a bit different, and the antennae should be longer for Thomson.. but that’s the closest I can match.
Not going to spend days trying to confirm it :p
