Hi Kaka

Im not a tax expert , though im sharing on my personal experience

If you were out of Malaysia for more than 14 days, Technically you break the connecting period for 2022 tax resident status. But you will be tax resident for the year 2023 if you continue stay until you fulfill 182+ days.

check page 9 for the connecting period example
