Most Malaysians would understand Good Bye just fine. However if you like to say it local you can use the examples below. Also note that there are many dialects in Malaysia so below are some examples:

Malay language:

Selamat jalan (Safe journey) Said to the person going

Selamat tinggal (Safe or good stay) Said to the person staying behind

Selamat malam (Safe or good night) Said for a short journey

However, there is a large population of Malaysians that speak Chinese or Indian languages. So here are some more that you can use for locals:

Chinese:

Chinese Mandarin - Zai jian

Chinese Cantonese- Joi gin

Chinese Hakka - Zoi kien

Indian:

General non formal: Nandri (see you later)

Tamil - Poyitu varen (formal)

Because Malaysia is a melting pot of cultures most people understand general English so all will understand the meaning of Good Bye but Malaysians will appreciate your effort to speak in their language, so go ahead and try.
