Please help me.

Never heard of it. Could be their coding for Professional Visa DP10/11. The DP10 is permission for the company to hire and DP11 is the process whereby the employee obtains the sticker in their passport. The company has to be eligible to hire foreigners otherwise the whole thing grinds to a halt.

Did the employer give you the reference number for your case? It sounds to be that PG2 just means "Professional Grade 2" and nothing else.

How many days for taken getting visa

Gravitas

Up to 2 months to get approval. Then you get visa with reference from local Malaysian High Commission, then you arrive in Malaysia and it takes about 2-3 weeks to get the sticker in your passport. The waiting times are very long at the moment because of a transition to a computerised system and we are heading for Ramadan as well.
