I can't speak for Malaysia, but agreed on Indonesia. I just visited a co-working space, Jogja Digital Valley (Yogyakarta), and got the feeling that good things would come of it. It will take time, but the combination of skills (Gadjha Mada and many other universities) and capital are here (8 companies get around 30k which goes much further here). The main problem with Indonesia is their poor Internet connectivity, unless something is done, it seems hard to imagine a Facebook being born in a dorm room or garage.

The "dark horse" for SEA is Myanmar; assuming the elections go well in 2014/2015, I could see them turning into a great place with essentially greenfield infrastructure investments over the next 5-10y.
