how to properly show MENU LOCAL TASK
Managed to find my solution! This thread here is my saviour: 
Print primary and secondary tabs separately

In templates/edit/edit-acct-settings.tpl.php page

&lt;?php if ($primary_local_tasks): ?&gt;
&lt;ul class="tabs primary"&gt;&lt;?php print render($primary_local_tasks); ?&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;?php endif; ?&gt;


In my_theme/template.php

function mythemename_preprocess_user_profile_form(&amp;$vars) {

  $vars['primary_local_tasks'] = menu_primary_local_tasks();
  $vars['secondary_local_tasks'] = menu_secondary_local_tasks();
}


Hope this helps any other newbies who encounter same issue!
Thanks all~
