From the record, it shows that the highest BLR Malaysia ever has is 12.27% in year 1998 and the lowest BLR is 6%. The average is 8.1%. Probably you can use this to justify whether it is better to take the fixed rate loan or the BLR – x% housing loan.
At this moment 2008, the BLR is 6.5%, next year 2009 should have a lower BLR but whether it will dive into a new lowest BLR rate that Malaysia ever has. We will wait and see.
