In a Malaysian prison, hopefully.
Prison is too good for this guy.
This guy even had a blog where he said no one cared about these kids
I'd say hopefully this scum gets killed in prison, but getting killed would be letting him off easy. Keep in mind that there are people in the US who are trying to normalize this stuff.
That's why religious men --- all denominations --- figure large in this type of sex abuse: it's not that "Christians become perverts," it's that "perverts infiltrate Christian churches/organizations." That's how they are brought into contact with needy children and become trusted figures.
"Willie, why do you rob banks?"Willie Sutton: "That's where the money is!"
"Richard, why did you get involved in Christian youth ministry?"
Richard Huckle: "That's where the kids are!"

The man should be imprisoned, but this extra-jurisdictional trial and conviction worries me. Was what he did not a crime in Malaysia? That’s where he should have been tried and convicted.
But if this guy is,in fact,guilty as charged it sounds like the sentence is a bit on the lenient side.
The Brits like buggery.
Six months? That indicates an enabler of some kind; six-month olds don’t wander around to be picked up and assaulted. That enabler deserves at least the same as the attacker!
Our department had to investigate a similar case. The perp had HOURS of video of him raping children in Thailand and other countries. He died from unspecified causes after just a couple of months in prison. Too bad, so sad...
