I'm building an app using a public Malaysia API (no private credentials needed).

API: Postcode Dataset
Provider: MCMC
Endpoint: GET https://api.data.gov.my/data-catalogue/?id=poskod&limit=10
Response format: JSON

Source: MCMC (https://data.gov.my/data-catalogue/poskod)
Source type: Official open-data catalogue
Endpoint type: Open-data catalogue JSON
Integration difficulty: Copy-paste ready
Production caveat: Still handle empty rows, schema changes, pagination, stale coverage, and temporary upstream failures.

Help me fetch and display this data. Follow the documented format and handle errors, empty responses, stale coverage, caching and rate limits.
