Translation and Interpretation Services
When a worker's hearing, a court matter or a compliance document depends on every word being understood, a friend who speaks the language is not enough. We provide qualified translators and interpreters across the major Malaysian languages and dialects, and the languages of Bangladesh and Pakistan.
Overview
Translation and Interpretation Services
What it is
Written translation and spoken interpretation for legal, compliance, employment and business settings: documents, hearings, inquiries, investigations, meetings and conferences.
Why organisations need it
Malaysian workplaces rely heavily on workers from Bangladesh and Pakistan, and fairness in a domestic inquiry, grievance or investigation depends on the worker understanding what is said and being understood. Compliance documents need translation too: the PDPA requires privacy notices in both Malay and English, and policies, codes of conduct and whistleblowing channels only work if staff can read them. Poor interpretation can undermine a disciplinary outcome or a legal process.

Why Orbix
Why organisations choose Orbix
A governance approach, not a tool sale
We do not resell products, so nothing here is shaped by a vendor margin. The recommendation is whatever your risk and your budget actually justify, including telling you that you do not need the engagement yet.
Recommendations you can actually implement
Findings come with a sequence, an owner and a realistic effort estimate, sized to the team you have rather than the team a framework assumes. A report that cannot be acted on is an expense, not a control.
Consultants who have sat on your side of the table
Our people have carried the obligation internally, not only audited it. That shows up in what we consider proportionate, and in how much documentation we think you genuinely need.
Built for the Malaysian operating context
Work is grounded in Malaysian law and regulator expectation, from the PDPA and the Cyber Security Act 2024 to Bursa, BNM and SC requirements, rather than translated from a European or American template.
HRD Corp expertise where it applies
Where an engagement includes training, the training component is structured to be HRD Corp SBL-Khas claimable, which changes what the programme costs you in practice.
Questions
Questions we get asked
Which languages do you cover?
Malay, English, Mandarin and Chinese dialects such as Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka and Teochew, Tamil and other major Malaysian languages and dialects, plus Bengali, Urdu and other languages spoken by Bangladeshi and Pakistani workers. Ask us about others.
Can you interpret at a domestic inquiry?
Yes. We brief the interpreter on the process so the worker understands the charge, the evidence and their rights.
Do you provide interpretation for court or legal matters?
Yes, for legal meetings, hearings and proceedings. Tell us the forum and we will confirm the right interpreter.
Can interpretation be online?
Yes. Interpretation can be delivered in person or over video.
How do you protect confidential material?
Translators and interpreters work under confidentiality undertakings, and documents are handled under the PDPA.
