What does tindakan pembetulan mean as one phrase?

It is a noun phrase meaning corrective action, remedial action, or corrective measures, depending on context.

• tindakan = action, measure, step taken
• pembetulan = correction, rectification

So together, tindakan pembetulan refers to action taken to fix a problem.

Why is it tindakan pembetulan and not pembetulan tindakan?

Because in Malay, the main noun usually comes first, and the word that describes it usually comes after.

• tindakan is the main noun
• pembetulan describes what kind of action it is

So the structure is:

• tindakan pembetulan = action of correction = corrective action

This is different from English, where descriptive nouns often come before the main noun.
