| You don't need a visa for Thailand or Malaysia, though Malaysia allows a longer stay. For Indonesia, you can get a visa on arrival for 25 dollars for 30 days. |

Malaysia - No, you get a three month visa on arrival by land or air.
Thailand - Yes and No, you get a one month transit visa if you arrive by
air, a two week transit visa if you arrive by land. Tourist
Visas are still free for Thailand and they are good for two
months and you get one re-entry, so all you have to do is
leave the country by air or land and come back for another
two months on the same visa. Two month Thai Visas you
cannot get on arrival
.
Indonesia - Definitely Yes and make sure you bring new crisp unfolded
US dollars to pay for it on arrival or the extortion begins at
immigration area. Because they don't except anything else.
You can get a one month visa on arrival for I think around 30
US or two month visa on arrival for I think around 60 US.
(Have a nice trip there  )
I am in Chiang Mai, Thailand now. |

Yo, I went to Malaysia in 2008 and all they did was stamp my passport, so NO, a separate visa is NOT needed.
I went to Thailand last year and it was the same, just a stamp good for a month. |

| The "stamp" in your passport IS your visa, it is a visa-stamp, but like has been pointed out, you get them when you arrive. |

No, the stamp is nothing more than an entry stamp. It is NOT a visa.
It is given to those citizens of countries who have concluded a visa waiver agreement with the country who gives you the stamp.
The length of time varies depending on YOUR nationality.
An example would be Korea.
Safers get 30 days on arrival (visa waiver - B1) and can get a 90-day C3 visa if they apply before they travel.
Citizens of the US, UK, AUS and NZ get 90 days on arrival (B1 stamp) and do not need a visa if they meet the visa waiver requirements (sufficient funds and onward passage).
Citizens of Canada get 6 months on arrival AND are NOT required to obtain an ARC if they are on a B2 entry stamp.
The information given by young_clinton is correct for all citizens who are able to obtain an E2 as an English teacher in Korea.
