one thing abt english is that there're certain words that dont have a definite pronunciation. dependin on ur geographical area and culture, you might pronoun slightly different than other people but that doesnt mean you're wrong
nevertheless, like u said, there are some words that malaysians must take heed of |

it might not bring you any appraisals in public but it'll do you good in other areas, e.g. work performance.

Yes, I agree. When we're speaking differently, people will think that we're speaking wrongly even though the way we speak is correct. |
