Malaysian Business hours - brief information about
travel in Malaysia.
Malaysia runs on a normal eight-hour working day
system with Saturdays as a half-day 
workday
and Sunday as a day of rest. All public service departments and some
banks usually close on the first and third Saturday of the month.
However, the states of Kelantan, Terengganu, and Kedah practice
different office hours. Saturday to Wednesday are full working days
while Thursday is treated as a half-day workday. The weekend starts
on Friday.
Private sector hours are generally from 9am to 5pm (Monday-Friday)
and 9am to 1pm (Saturday) while government office hours are usually
from 8.30am to 4.30pm. Many private sector companies operate on a
five-day week.
