If you don't take into account accomodations, you can get away with surprisingly little. Of course that depends on your spending habits. If you eat and travel like locals, 15pounds a day per person is plenty enough in KL, Phuket and Singapore. The best food is street food (or hawker food) in all three of these places anyway.
If you plan to eat in restaurants and travel by cabs - Cab fare in Thailand is generally cheap, averaging no more than 150baht. Remember to ask them to turn on the meter, some cab drivers charge a higher flat rate. Tuk-tuks are aplenty too but they're asking for more money in recent years..rides in Patong I heard, have gone up to 200baht! (It was 100baht when I last when 2 years ago). Some hotels might have a service bus to more commercial beaches like Patong. Eating out in restaurants will probably cost 10pounds per person.
Same in KL. Cab fares are cheap (I do not trust the buses in KL) Shopping is okay too, and a meal at a relatively nice restaurant will be about 10pounds, as compared to a meal had at a hawker centre - 1pound per person. Beware Petaling Street though. Well known tourist rip-off.
Singapore, cab fares are alot pricier compared to KL and Phuket, But the public transportation is superb. Take the buses and the trains. Eat in food courts and hawker centres and you will not spend more than 15pounds a day. If you're staing in Mandarin Oriental though, you'll probably spend more, it's right in the heart of Orchard Road - shopping stretch which means more temptation, and hawker food is not so easily available. Plenty of food courts in the shopping malls nearby though. It's a really nice hotel.
Traders in KL is pretty good too. And if I can judge Marriot Phuket by the one in Bangkok, it's superb. Can't help with the rest though.
bring along your credit card too
