Yes, buy something within your budget. usually u can get Baofeng UV5R less than RM120. fair enough to start your hobby with.

there is alot of topic you can choose to start: C4FM, APRS, DMR, Amsat, Digital Mode, Morse Code, HF, Rules of Amateur Radio, Dont & Do, Raspberry Pi, TnC and many more

Should i buy uvf/vhf or hf and there's also those with certain Mhz so it's quite confusing

if you want to start with domestic coverage, you can go with VHF/UHF Analog (which is the transceiver is still within your budget). And if you love to communicate with international coverage, you can go with HF - 40m band (but a bit higher price at least RM2k for the transceiver without antenna + psu + tuner).

nowadays, in peninsular, we are actively on digital/dmr which is more fun LOL why not give a try (less than 1k tho). plus no need repeater, just activated your Wires-X, all you need is an Internet!
