Last summer I discovered two seperate shop selling roleplaying stuff in Penang - so I know there are roleplayers in Malaysia. Unfortunately it was all D&D, but that qualifies as roleplaying too 
Of course if you can't find roleplayers there is an easy answer - create roleplayers. Why not introduce some new people to this great hobby?
it is very possible bout also almost as hard as trying to conjure up a firestorm during winter. RPG is now considered almost rare to the point that is it highly unlikely to find someone that will try to learn it from scratch. all thanks to cyber cafes and mmorps..
even magic the gathering is in a limited group reach here in malaysia... meant for the rich and richer now adays considereing the price of the boosters going up n up x_x
of cos there are some shops selling comics and rpgs stuffz but even the store owners said it's rare to have many new pple finding out about RPGs. and dresden files isn't yet a big thing here
and futher more it also meant that pple wanna do Dresden RPG must go through the whole 9 books which might take time unlesss they all wanna start out as someone really dunno much about the world like Call of C'thullu games. which is very possible. the prob still persist in finding pple interested. I've tried to look for Vampire the masquarade group too or anything romotely rpg like D&D or the AD&D..(sorry AD&D fans.. when through too many rules lawyers in the past) been having the stores help me post up notices too.. no one called.. but currently i might have one friend that is interested though.. a veteran RPGer.. trying to pass him all me books.
but whoa! u been to penang? kewl!!!!! Where are you from? tell me!!! *tries some mind controling spells*
