I wanna know its scientific and astronomical reason. Indonesia and Malaysia are in east but sometimes they also celebrate Eid on the same day of KSA.

There isn’t a scientific or astronomical reason; the crescent moon can be “first” seen from any part of the world in which the moon is above the horizon. I’m not educated on this tradition but I would imagine the Saudis could potentially have certain reasons in starting Eid on or before a particular date, whatever they might be.
