A social visa is for "up to" 30 days, with a possible extension of another 30 days or another additional 30 days extension on next request, subject to immigration's discretion.
Maximum of 90 days.
But plan for 60 days maximum.
If you are a female from VN, you may be refused extension on your first extension. "MAYBE" is the key word.
Somebody may chime in with alternates, like staying in Malaysia

In Philippines I can extend my Social visa for upto a year, and then pay a processing free for departure and come back in a week.

There is a limit on the number of days Malaysians can travel in and out on a visa on arrival.
Those that travel in and out usually have a work permit
