TLDR : Answer Summary

To obtain a 1-year Non-B visa, Penang is currently the only consulate in Southeast Asia that issues this type, requiring a work permit with at least 8 months validity. Other consulates typically issue only 90-day single-entry visas.

you will need a work permit with at least 8 months validity to get a year-long multi-entry Non-B from Penang.

I believe that's the only consulate in S/E Asia that issues year Non-B's. All the rest issue only 90 day single entry ones.
