In what direction is the sun's annual motion relative to the fixed stars?
The Sun's apparent motion among the stars is from West to East - just like the motion of the Moon, and the predominant motion of the planets (planets sometimes go from East to West, too - in this case they are said to be retrograde).
What is the yearly direction of the sun in the sky with respect to the stars?
West to east. This is also the direction of the Moon with respect to the stars. As seen from Earth, planets sometimes go from east to west and sometimes from west to east, but the west to east movement is the predominating movement - therefore that movement is called prograde, while east to west is called retrograde.

Why the sun rises earlier in Malaysia and later in India?
The Earth spins from west to east; so the apparent motion of the Sun, as we ride on the spinning Earth is for the Sun to "rise" in the east and set in the west. Malaysia is well to the east of India, so Malaysia turns to face the Sun first.
When does a planet is said to be in retrograde motion?
A planet is said to be in retrograde motion when its apparent motion - the motion as seen by us, against the background stars - is from east to west.Planets spend more time in prograde motion, from west to east. The apparent movement of Sun and Moon against the background stars is also from west to east. Not to be confused with the daily motion, due to Earth's rotation.
