Please tell me in Dollars or Malaysia Currency.
Details of cost of living would also be appreciated.

The usual level is about RM1750-1950. But that is in Malaysian universities. You would need to ask Monash for their terms. You would probably need other money to live in Malaysia while doing your PhD. You have to show as certain level of income in your bank account before you are accepted.
