"Malay (Bahasa Melayu) is the official language of the nation. Other languages spoken in the country are Chinese dialects (Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, Teochew, Hainan, Foochow), an Indian languages like Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Punjabi." "English is also widely spoken by Malaysians and it is also a compulsory subject in primary and secondary education. The English language is sometimes used in official correspondence and examinations are based on British English though there has been much American influence through television. However, English as spoken in Malaysia has been diverging, and is known locally as Manglish. Manglish, an English based creole, is very similar to Singlish, the English spoken in Singapore, though the slang terms tend to be different."

trust me, there are a whole bunch of expats who don't know Malay working in Malaysia, and they survive well. It won't harm if u can only speak english, unless your work involves meeting with the lower-class people. I think it would be a major plus point if u're a caucasian... empoyers here tend to revere the caucasians for some unknown reasons. The only bad thing is some hawkers may charge the caucasians higher price bcoz they think white people who come here are wealthy.

you will get the advantage of learning Malaysia Language. Nothing to regret. For working, i think if you get a job in city such Kuala Lumpur, almost the places used English as the main language, but somehow, they still keep our nation language. They will happy to hear you speaking nation language. And the most thing is, if you learn our nation language, you can easily communicate with rural people when you visit outside main city. it such a benefit for you too. thanks :)
