## What is Malaysia Pocket?

Something happened — now what?

Malaysia Pocket tells you who handles it, how long you have to act, and what to bring. Then it helps you actually do it.

Most people lose a valid claim for one reason: nobody told them a clock was running. Unfair dismissal is 60 days. A consumer claim is three years. Miss it and the case is over before it starts.

WHEN IT JUST HAPPENED
• 999, 994, 997 and 991 on the home screen, one tap to dial
• Since 2025, a call to 997 counts as a police report — you do not have to go to a station first
• Fraud hotlines for every Malaysian bank

WORK OUT WHAT TO DO
• 25 situations in plain language — scammed, dismissed, deposit not returned, injured at work, harassed online
• Each one names the agency, the deadline, and the evidence to gather before you file
• 29 step-by-step guides, from filing a police report to contesting a summons
• 28 rights topics and 22 plain-language law summaries, each citing the Act and section so you can check it yourself

TRACK IT TO THE END
• Start a case and the clock starts with it
• Reminders 30 days, 7 days and 1 day before your deadline, and on the day itself
• Tick off each step, set your own dates to chase people by
• Keep photos and notes as evidence — they never leave your phone
• Export the whole case as a PDF with a contents page, ready to hand to an agency or a lawyer

WRITE THE LETTER
• A formal surat aduan in Bahasa Malaysia — the language most Malaysian agencies process fastest — or in English
• Built from your case as you type, kept on your device

EVERYDAY MALAYSIA
• Public and school holidays, filtered to your state
• Train map, night markets, mall parking rates, bank contact numbers

BUILT FOR WHEN IT MATTERS
• Works offline — the content you have opened stays available with no signal
• No account needed to use any of it
• English, Malay, Chinese and Tamil
• Optional Face ID lock on your cases, because case notes hold things you would not hand to a stranger

Free to download. Every core feature is free — situations, rights, guides, deadline tracking, complaint letters, search and saved items. Pocket Pro removes the ads and unlocks personalisation.

Malaysia Pocket is guidance, not legal advice. Every figure names the Act it comes from so you can check it before you rely on it.
