It's really hard to identify this one, but thanks to Daniel Marlos, Eric Eaton, and Karl from
whatsthatbug.com for their effort to identify this guy. it's an Issidae from tribe Hemisphaeriini.
this is what karl from whatsthatbug.com answer:
Hi Daniel and Mohamad: I believe most or all of these are Issid Planthoppers (Issidae) in the Subfamily Hemisphaeriinae and Tribe Hemisphaeriini. This includes 13 genera and numerous species, all restricted to east and southeast Asia. Most are very poorly documented online and photos are difficult to find, but similar bug photos can be found under species such as Hemisphaerius, Gergithus and Gergithoides. Regards. Karl
