Art and Design is blooming in Malaysia, but it could also be a tough road ahead especially after this pandemic. However, because you are not into specific preference, I can only give you on the overall view of the current market situation.How is the design industry in Malaysia nowadays?

Architecture and Interior Design should be the best choice if you are into earning decent paid salary. On average, the pay in consultant firm is around RM4000-5000 for a master graduate. You could get higher around RM7000 if you work with developers or contractors.
Graphic Design can provides you with a wider spectrum of choice. Your work are not limited to only one field; from producing artist impression for development, advertisement board, illustrator for books and comics, etc. I suppose the satisfaction is higher although the pay maybe slightly lower than architecture and interior design. However, if you are working on freelance, the reward is awesome.
Fashion Design is fairly limited in Malaysia market. Most of the retailer opts for China product which produces in mass scale and cheap. You need to work out your own brand with very outstanding characteristic. Take a look at Zang Toi, Lewre, Christy Ng, etc. Maybe Dato Jimmy Lim can inspire you too. I personally think lingerie design could be a good business here in Malaysia if you could make bespoke lingerie for the VIP. This is one of my dream.
Automobile design is very limited in Malaysia. However, you can always opts to work with oversea brand to learn something. That will be a better option looking at our national cars condition.
There are more design fields that you can chose, but the lesser known, the lesser your career choice. However, thinking on the positive side, the rarity make you worth a million.
