Experiences

I have more than 10 years experiences in MSDS translation, translating and writing journal manuscripts and abstracts, R&D quests, book chapters from English>Malay, Jawi (Malay in Arabic letter)>English. Technical fields include science, engineering, medical and IT. Due to strong interest in translation, I have switched into online mode and diversify my specialization into medical, IT and software, media, technology/product promotions, social science and general field. I have collaborated with different companies locally and internationally in which the translation fields are varied from multimedia subtitles, copywriting, product promotion, education and social science. Daily output between 1500 to 3000 words depending to the subject and difficulty of the source text. Currently appointed as Karyawan DBP (Writer Membership for Institute of Language and Learning of Malaysia) and have passed Malaysian Institute of Translation and Books (ITBM) translation test which enable me to collaborate with ITBM as their part-time translator.
Key asset fields that I have been specializing:

- Physics; Ultrasound, optics, dielectrics, geology, analogue and digital electronic etc.
- Chemistry; organic, inorganic, catalyst etc.
- Medical, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals; healthcare, general, medical instruments and etc.
- Materials Safety Data Sheet, Lab Safety and Risk Assessment
- Annual report, company handbook etc.
- Various domain of questionnaire (English>Malay and Malay>English)
- Coating and Surface Finishing; Organic and Inorganic
- Scientific Patent
- Materials and Engineering
- Engineering tools
- Oil and Gas
- Energy
- Automotive
- Nanomaterials
- Spectroscopy, Microscopy, Thermal analysis, Electrical properties etc.
- Information technology, internet marketing, software localization etc.
- Many others including subtitles

Translation memories cum glossaries for:
- Science, Engineering, IT and Medical/Pharmaceuticals (more than 2,000,000++ words)


Trained as Researcher make me really comfortable in understanding materials in R&D activity. Therefore, safety data sheet or namely MSDS is my daily checked text as well as journals in which it is needed for publication of academic finding. In addition, reviewing (i.e proofreading and editing) is also one of my strength and the materials that have been entrusted for reviewing process since 2007 include scientific journals from Wiley Blackwell such as Polymer Composites, Applied Polymer Science, Polymer Engineering and Science, Physical Science USM, Asian journals etc. Various materials subject and measurement especially for research work that have been reviewed include materials and technology for intellectual property and patenting. Up to now, more than 50 academic manuscripts have been reviewed and the numbers are keeping on increasing.
