Yes, Malaysia is near the equator. Actually, the equator passes through the south of the Malay peninsula.
Malaysia is at the equator, it just 5 degree on the north side of the equator. East Malaysia is basically half of Borneo, Borneo is split on the middle by the equator with the Malaysia site on the Northern Hemisphere and the Indonesian site on the Southern Hemisphere.

Yes, the Philippines is located near the equator, which means it experiences a warm climate throughout the year. Parts of the country lie just north of the equator line.

Close is a relative term and subject to opinion.

The southern tip of the southernmost of the Philippine islands is about 371 miles from the equator.
