Eh? Pernah (had) and dulu (before) are our modifiers to make past tenses, and so is akan for future tense (the exact same usage as will, and less confusing!)

Indonesian English is only used by a few people (mostly urban youngsters), but from what I know Manglish is common because some Malaysians refuse/don't see the point in learning Malay, which is sad...

I don’t speak it, so IDK. It was just explained to me that tenses weren’t always there. But, that was explained to me by a primarily English Malay speaker which - goes to the topic you mentioned which is sad.
