electrical department in Tesco, Carrefour, Giant, Jusco, Mydin, ACE Hardware, etc...
your local electrical shop also have...
very common item...

Just bought recently at ACE hardware, 19.90 for 2.

Why buy this when you can buy the digital timer and the timer can be set to be repeated forever..
the analog (is in the picture above) is just for 24 hours, then you need to set it again..

Not really, the timer show on the picture, actually is similar to the timer u said, but what you need to do to keep running repeat daily is, when u plug in to your power soket, you need to switch on the power and leave it, then the timer will keep running until u switch off the switch

2 unit at 19.90? i also bought 1 unit at 19.90 ytd at ACE.

The analog type is more reliable. I brought 2 which made in france and have a backup battery when power failure. Last for 10yrs+. Still working perfect.

Ikea also have

sidetrack a bit.. How do I install a timer on an existing light switch.. Can it be DIY or we hv to call electrician/wireman to get it installed?

Advise to call electrician. Not easy as DIY.

And for switch, there have timer for switch type. Not those common 3pin plug timer.
