Economy class earns 1 sector, regardless of price (cheap or expensive). Business 2 and First 3. Reference table.

So if you're traveling to anywhere that is not KUL, you'll earn 4 sectors for that roundtrip in Economy and 8 sectors in Business.

30 sectors per calendar year gets your Silver (OW Ruby) and 50 sectors gets you Gold (OW Sapphire).

I will be Silver starting next year and should reach Gold by year end. Unfortunately since I fly mostly short/mid haul and on cheap tickets, I earn very little miles to redeem. Will probably use them for upgrades instead.
