Have you try checking your time zone. When you are using GPS, it always correcting your PDA time. Perhaps your PDA time zone was not Malaysia time zone.

Just like bro baronic reply, better go for well known device like Garmin or Mapking. Easy to get help from other user...

For me when come to road navigation, the map itself was more important than GPS device. No matter how expensive your device priced or function but if you don't have details of road map or you can't find way to update the map. Better don't buy it...
