"...saya merujuk perkara di atas dan surat pejabat ini bil. (62) dlm. xx/xxxx/xx/x bertarikh... "
The xx's are a reference number of another letter being referenced. I am guessing that dlm. is an abbreviation of "dalam," however what is the meaning of "bil." ?

Malay term (edited):
\\\"...saya merujuk perkara di atas dan surat pejabat ini bil. (62) dlm. xx/xx\\\"
"... I refer to the above-mentioned matter and our letter vol. (62) in xx/xx
"bil" is short for "bilangan" in which case you can translate it as number or volume.
