Our main concern was time spent in Singapore. Is it too long. Can we go on a day trip somewhere else from our itinerary. 4 nights seems like quite alot!
Thanks

Is Penang really worth it? More than Singapore? Also I thought 2 days in KL would be fine!? no?6
It depends on what you are interested in. Singapore has much more to offer, Pinang is smaller and less developed.2 days in KL are fine.
Skip Tioman and fly to Redang instead - much better beaches.

Kuching is much more interesting in my opinion. It has more the flair of a wild, colonial era jungle town. In addition, there are lots of national parks near Kuching. Georgetown is just a big city. But compare by yourself:http://www.molon.de/galleries/Malaysia/Sarawak/Kuching/
The area around Kuching (check the west Sarawak galleries):
