Zone "Atap tambahan" is indeed fully enclosed, yet its Wall and sloped Roof surfaces all have inverted vertex sequences: they're defined clockwise (when looking at them from outside the zone), e.g.:

    6.456687477963,          !- Vertex 2 X-coordinate {m}
    9.879976463316,          !- Vertex 2 Y-coordinate {m}
    3.400000000000,          !- Vertex 2 Z-coordinate {m}
    6.456687477963,          !- Vertex 3 X-coordinate {m}
    12.229976463316,         !- Vertex 3 Y-coordinate {m}
    3.400000000000;          !- Vertex 3 Z-coordinate {m}

... they should be counter-clockwise, given the IDF's geometry rules:

GlobalGeometryRules,
    UpperLeftCorner,         !- Starting Vertex Position
    Counterclockwise,        !- Vertex Entry Direction
    Relative;                !- Coordinate System

Incidentally, the 2x sloped Roof surfaces (like "F4A4D5" above) are labelled as Walls. That likely triggers the 90.1 surface tilt warning.
