Malaysia – spending money advice?

My fiance and I will be honeymooning in Kuala Lumpar and Borneo on Room Only basis. We would like to get an idea of what the average costs of food and drink are so we know how much we will need to save up. Is anybody able to help? Also, any “must do/sees” are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Nikki
