Try Zara first. You can get a business suit with matching pants and shirt easily.
The try H&M and Saccor Brothers .
Your suit can be from Zara and Shirt and Pants from H&M. Its fine.
If you need a bowtie, Zara and H&M have it, alternatively get those from Brook Brothers

If you have time, go to Vietnam, Hoi An to custom make one suit. It's really nice and much cheaper than local tailor. For the price of a full suit at Lord's for example you can have your suit and a full holiday there. Can get your brother to do his suit there also, go whole family.
If no time or budget, H&M blazers cutting look good and modern enough, quite cheap too. Honestly, Malaysia weddings I find blazer and black jeans/pants with nice shoes is more than enough. Most important is fit and cutting

164cm and 53kg, you better not waste your time. Just go and get one custom made.
Anything off the rack will look too baggy.

Hi for your size i guarentee zara cant fit you. The only ready made suit that can fit you are top shop but no more. U can try your luck in uniqlo cos they are asian size. Bespoke is the best if u have budget. The good ones are the wardrobe or lords tailor.
