I am trying to read between the lines here, I reckon TS does not say any where near KL ? And since he mentioned zero commitment (no rent? No utility?) I reckon he maybe staying with parents, so f those are true, why not?

Yes I live with parents, no commitment. But I find food price really expensive, RM 10 X 3 meal is already RM 900 a month, that is assuming you can consistently go for RM 10 meal. Sushi once Macdonald once treat gf once the budget confirm lari already.

Kinda agree with you.
My wife's earning similar to TS, also with zero commitment except own insurance, was eyeing for Yaris or Myvi few years back. Eventually settled for Myvi as preferred AT > CVT.

So TS can go for 70k car.

A big part of the equation aside from less commitment is cost of living, so TS has things worked out for him since he stays with his parents where he already saves on housing and utility.

Another factor is really where he stays, and it does make a lot of difference.

I know because I travel to many towns in Malaysia and in general cost of living in KL and JB are far greater than even PJ or Klang let alone further out of Klang valley .

And if it is other states, the difference is even more astounding.

Although TS did not say where he lives, but his statements of saying RM 10 per meal seems to suggest that he may not be living any where near KL.
