I have no problem accessing Gmail, Google nor Adsense web sites. May be they have mirrored site here in Malaysia. I do not know why local sites seem to be a little bit faster than usual. Unfortunately, Yahoomail cannot be accessed at all.
I do not know where this neyokes.com server is located, because the reseller is from Malaysia, but it also extremely slow.
