Connecting flights at KUL

Hey FT,

Had a quick question about a tight connection I'm considering in Kuala Lumpur. We'd be flying from Siem Reap to Kuala Lumpur on AirAsia flight 543. It lands at KLIA Terminal 2 at 11:35am. Our next flight is Thai Airlines flight 416 from KUL to BKK at 1:20pm. I believe it takes off from KLIA Terminal 1. This would all be happening on a Saturday (October 4, 2014).

Do you think it's possible to make this connection? It looks like we'd need to clear immigration in Terminal 2, take a 3 minute train to Terminal 1, re-do security in Terminal 1, and potentially go through immigration again in Terminal 1. Are these tasks usually pretty fast at KUL? If it's helpful for speeding up the process, we are flying business class on Thai Air and I'm Star Alliance Gold.

Thanks very much for the help! Normally I'd never consider a connection this tight, but this is one of the only flights that will work for us!
