Depends on language, which is based on cultural context.

In English, noon is 12. So after that is well afternoon. Then you have the afternoon tea. Evening is when you leave work or have dinner.
BM had no equivalent for afternoon.  So petang covers afternoon and evening. Eg minum petang. From 1 to 6 is usually considered petang. 7 is on the fence.

Similarly the context for night and malam is different. Night is when you sleep. That's why ppl wish you good evening even at 10pm and say good night when you leave. Malam however is usually after 8pm
