Nah, I would take the Mi Note 3 over the Redmi Note 5 Pro.

The Redmi Note 5 Pro, a phone with Snapdragon 636, micro USB, worse dual camera setup compared to Meizu M6 Note, and no water resistance, when imported to Malaysia will cost a lot and that will the make the phone more expensive compared to the Mi Note 3, a phone with a Snapdragon 660, USB Type C, better dual camera setup(scored 90 marks on DxOMark) and IP67 water resistance.

Nah, this camera setup still sucks, no OIS and the apertures are not less than f/2.0. But the camera setup on the Mi 6 and Mi Note 3 have great quality.

I meant that the camera is bad for videos, you need OIS for good camera which can do both videos and photos well. A good camera needs OIS to be good at videos, it's like you've never used a high end smartphone before.

Does it? Some sources say it has, some sources say it doesn't? Some say it has an IP67 rating, some say it is just splash resistant.

Definitely better than Huawei Nova 2i.

Faster charging speeds and more durable.
Basically better than Micro USB and Lightning Port, even laptops use USB C nowadays.
