How to change the chapter name to something else? For example to have it in other language, such as Malay. In order to do it, put the code below in the preamble of your LaTeX document.

\documentclass{report}
\renewcommand{\chaptername}{Bab}
\begin{document}
\chapter{Introduction}
Testing
\end{document}

I would like to write a document in Malay language using LaTeX. The problems here are how to change Figure/Table to Malay language.
Table = Jadual (Malay)
Figure = Rajah (Malay)
@mzaini: To change a command, you could use the \renewcommand{}{}.
Change Figure to Rajah:
\renewcommand{\figurename}{Rajah}
Change Table to Jadual:
\renewcommand{\tablename}{Jadual}
