May in Petronas Towers — the hardest end of the year

Days in May average 27°C (80°F) and humidity near 88% — front-load outdoor plans before the heat builds and treat the middle of the day as indoor time.

This is the year's wettest stretch at 208 mm, but with about 21 days with 6+ hours of sunshine it is not a total loss; an indoor fallback covers the risk.

That is 4.1/10 on the same scale — 8th of 12 months, versus 4.5/10 for the best month here.

Pack the lightest breathable clothing you own, a hat, and more water than feels necessary, a proper rain shell rather than an umbrella.

Budget for low-season pricing, and crowds are light for this destination.
