Try Olympus XZ-1 at RM1.1k. Big f/1.8 aperture, good for low light and for capturing fast movements

How about Panasonic LX5 or Olympus XZ-1?

There's also the Canon S100..
Can't get a new DSLR with RM1k. Only 2nd hand

Boleh increase budget lagi to around RM1.1k boleh tak? If not, maybe you can try to source out for a Panasonic LX3

Sony NEX series FTW but not sure which one

You should ask in the Nikon thread for better recommendations.
Anyway, just to answer your question: You'd probably have to decide yourself on whether to get a prime lens or a zoom lens.
Zoom lens- versatility
Prime lens- Image Quality, bigger aperture=shallower DOF
(generally speaking)
LX3 no 1080HD, thats the sucky thing
