To get a teaching work permit in Malaysia you need to be

- 27 or over
- have teaching credentials for teaching (for schools tefl insufficient as a main teacher with a celta can get support jobs with lots of experience)

So impossible for you legally. And you are not a native speaker. try Thailand!
