Malaysia Airlines has a staged excess baggage fee, which it is charged differently depending on whether you are traveling within or outside the country. The charges depend on the kilogram per transaction and are divided between five designated zones. You will enjoy a saving of 20% if you book your excess baggage over the Internet, as you will not pay any more than it would cost in an airport.
