There is actually a cash requirement, but it is rarely checked. I suggest you carry some US dollars or US dollars and RMB as a backup. When actually used, you can withdraw Ringgit from an ATM. The ATM at the airport has a limit of 1500 Ringgit per withdrawal, and a fee of 15 Ringgit.

I have been there twice and have not encountered any cash requirements. You can exchange Malaysian ringgit with cash or withdraw Malaysian ringgit from an ATM with a bank card, which is very convenient.
