Hi all,
I'm a 22 year old British citizen, though my mother is Malay and father British. My parents' marriage is registered in both Malaysia and the UK, and we own property here in Malaysia.
I'd like to know what my options are with regards to long term visas; would I be eligible for the LTSVP? PR? Or am I treated as though I'm a complete foreigner despite being half-Malay since I'm over the age of 21?
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!

I think as you are British because of your Passport, immigration rules will follow your nationality, unless your father has PR status in Malaysia, whereby I believe he could apply for a long-term visa for you.
Check on the Fragomen website for Malaysia.

Thanks for the reply. My situation seems quite bleak then, I'll give the website a look too.
