Translating SPM cert

Got my SPM cert translated for RM10 at Lembaga Peperiksaan yesterday. Took quite a drive, and with the recent and sudden toll hike, it was RM20 for toll driving from IKEA area to Putrajaya. Putting avoid toll options on google map will save a few couple of bucks. Positive news was the process itself was very quick, in less than 10 minutes, my cert was translated and certified by the Assistant Director of the Examination Syndicate, as the true certified copy. I actually thought the cert is an original translated copy and hence need not to be certified. I am still thinking the same.

Drove to the Taman Duta branch before to check in, but according to the security, this branch only deals with 'confidential' information. So putrajaya it was, and the parking there was very shocking to me. it was quite confusing to see where the parking spots are, and many cars were parked surrounding the front of the all the kementrian office's entrances. The flow was pretty bad in there. Had some time to sight see before driving into block E11, there are definitely many rooms for improvements.

Been through some other options before lembaga, such as getting a list of embassy approved translators, and even self-translation, the former is plausible but it was too expensive compared to lembaga option, and the latter was obviously just something for me to have fun and retrain my bahasa-english language translation skills.

Hope posting this will save you time and money on translating your cert that I've voluntarily invested in. Also took a picture of how the terjemahan sijil looks like!
Blurring it a little bit for some discretion :D

  2. Hello, I wish to pursue my undergraduate studies overseas too, and just like how you were, I need to translate my SPM and STPM certificates to english before I can get the confirmation from the consul in the embassy. Can I translate the certificates myself? STPM certificate translation is too expensive and time consuming.

    Look forward for your reply as well as your advice. Thank you :)

    1. You should check with the institutions if they recognise self-translated certs. Usually they require some approved sources for legitimacy.

    1. It was done within minutes when I was at the office. The time consuming part was looking for the place and getting parking.

  5. Hi Karee, I was wondering if you know whether I could do this online or through post as I am living in Sweden and I am not able to go to Putrajaya. I really need my official translation of my SPM cert ASAP as they did not accept my original version eventhough it already had the translation of the subjects in English. Thank you.

What a wig!

When we see ourselves in the mirror everyday, 9 out of 10 times we will definitely involuntarily do something with our hair, either touch it, fiddle with it, or etc. And human's one kind of creature who loves new things. We get bored with our current hairstyle. So, we cut our hair. Perm it. Rebound it. Dye it. Gel it. Wax it. Some even go to the extent to Bead it (its quite cute anyway). BUT! This modern age has given us an opportunity to change our hairstyle in no time-thanks to d WIGS! And since I was waiting for my mum, I really didnt mind to try on some new hairstyle. Dont I just look like CORDIN BLEU? If i got dark skin I think I can look like a pretty decent black... This look like the hairstyle I got when I was in Form 3. Sudden change. Previously curly long  hair. Then, BAAM! Hmmm. This one...Broom?Poodle? And this one is my favourite! So I've decided to use it as my profile picture! hahahaha Whats next? HAHAHAHA.My sister and I laughed like hell whe...

A Hike at Broga Hill

I don't think you'll believe it if I were to tell you that I woke up at 5am, well, 4.55am to be exact, just because I wanna see the sun rise from the horizon. Well it's kinna hard to convince myself that I ACTUALLY did that! Well if my sister didn't wake me up I'll probably call off the plan again. Slept at around 2.30 and waking up at 5am just isn't something that will put you in a mood for a DAWN hike. The sky was pitch black when we embarked on our journey, all the wayyy UP! Whatever la, lucky the guy in front of me has a torch, or else it's really impossible to NOT get your left or right leg stuck into one of the holes or, both. Well if you're looking for a leisure walk up hill, this is definitely the choice. It took us for about 40 mins to reach the second-class peak (my jeh-fu couldn't take it anymore) and for the toughs and fits, 20 mins is more than adequate. Plus, you get to enjoy the invigorating air once you're at the top ...
