Is money received in the MYR section considered taxable if you use Wise to receive payment and hold the money in the Wise account?

is that money is considered as "Income" ?

Since 2004 to date, “income received in Malaysia from outside Malaysia” or foreign-sourced income (“FSI”) received by Malaysian taxpayers is not taxable due to the availability of tax exemption under Paragraph 28, Schedule 6 of the ITA (“Para 28”). Under this law, exemption is given to any person, other than a resident company carrying on the business of banking, insurance, or sea or air transport, in respect of income derived from sources outside Malaysia and received in Malaysia.

Govt agrees to exempt tax on foreign source income for resident taxpayers – MoF
The tax exemption is effective from Jan 1, 2022 to Dec 31, 2026.
