Official wording
Melalui Perjanjian Pengecualian Visa Bersama antara Kerajaan Malaysia dan Kerajaan Republik Rakyat China (RRC), satu mekanisme kawalan yang lebih ketat telah diperkenalkan di mana warganegara RRC hanya dibenarkan masuk dan tinggal tanpa visa untuk tempoh maksimum 30 hari bagi setiap kemasukan, tertakluk kepada had kumulatif 90 hari berada di Malaysia dalam tempoh keseluruhan 180 hari.
Aevamo’s reading
The Immigration Department of Malaysia is the body that administers entry control under the Immigration Act 1959/63; its 'Visa Requirement by Country' page is the operative instrument stating which nationalities must obtain a visa before entry (who must apply), and the complementary visa-free durations are published by the same department and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the documents cited. The page imposes the requirement ('Countries required to apply for a visa to enter Malaysia') rather than merely reporting that one exists.
The Home Minister's parliamentary reply states Chinese citizens may enter visa-free for a maximum of 30 days per entry, subject to a cumulative 90 days in any 180-day period.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
