We give compliments if we think a person deserves it. Usual response is the person will thank you for it. In Malaysia, we love to be modest. They will give an alternate response such as It's not that great actually, I'm just being lucky and etc.
It might be considered rude in other country for not accepting a compliment given by others but that is just the way they are in Malaysia. But bare in mind, it does not mean that the person is not accepting the compliment.
This is not only the culture in Malaysia but in other Eastern countries too such as China. So, in the future, if you encountered that sort of event, you can understand the nature of it. If you are interested to read more in this topic I suggest you to click this link.
