Since you already have a Work Permit, it’s best to check with Immigration for this one. From what I know, students (Student Pass holders) are not allowed to work in Malaysia. There are some exceptions. Here is what I copied from the EMGS website:
“All international students studying at public or private higher education institutions are allowed to work part-time for a maximum of 20 hours per week ONLY during semester breaks or holidays of more than 7 days at restaurants, petrol kiosks, mini markets and hotels as long as their student passes remain valid. Please note that prior approval from the Department of Immigration is required.”
