Wong, most of the refinancing scheme that will help you in paying off the lock-in penalty fee would include the paid penalty fee in the refinanced loan amount. Unless you would really make a significant savings from the refinancing scheme, it's inadvisable to just look at the "Lock-in Penalty Fee Waiver" feature.

It's also helpful to remember that once you refinance, you'll be locked-in for another 3-5 years.

I don't think Bank Negara will revise the rate until Q12009, despite the rising inflation.

I think the best indicator right now is to look at the rising inflation.

Here's another piece of information which can tell you about where our economy is heading: http://www.meshio.com/2008/09/malaysia-economi-...

what if the economy situation is not favourable in the coming months and next year...what kind of increase in rate can we expect? perhps there are some stdy being made by the BNM that u guys knw of?

Re: Malaysia Banking Institutionsâ€™ Base Lending Rate (BLR)

Hi Seetha, it was supposed to have gone up when Bank Negara was expected to raise the interest rate. However, it seems that Bank Negara has chose to maintain the interest rate at 3.5%, citing the current weakening economy a temporary crisis.

If the economy is not stagflating and improving, the BLR could really well be maintained at 3.50% throughout the year.
