Hi Susah,

It's my understanding that you need to use the Malay version for the
screenshots. Unless the buttons are still in English in the Malay
version, of course.  I'm not an expert on this, as I only deal with the
English (US) version, but did you change your settings in the Regional
Formats to Malay also?  That might be why you're having issues with
activating the language pack. 

As for links, this is the only one I can find off-hand
https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-manual/msg02988.html I'm not sure if
it covers localized (other languages) screenshots though.

You'll probably want to wait for an answer from Hannie or John, or
another one of the translators before going on.

Have a great day:)
Patrick.
