ORIGINAL POSTER

Friendly advice: If you will apply for a DTV visa (in my case I was in person in Penang), do not use a broker statement to prove your funds, my application was rejected for that reason, 🙏.

thank you for that update, I'm not going to keep this post open as it's just an FYI of what NOT to do at Penang to show proof of funds

Sorry you didn't get the DTV approved,

good thing is Penang is one of those consulates that just rejects you BEFORE you apply/pay not have you pay, issue the visa in your passport then stamp it VOID and burn you for the money
