The key here is in your [xlite] context in extensions.conf. You 
currently have it as:

[xlite]
; Catch all five digit numbers, no leading zeroes
exten => _[123456789]XXXX,1,NoOp("call for "${EXTEN})
exten => _[123456789]XXXX,2,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},60,tr)
;exten => _[123456789]XXXX,2,Dial(SIP/spa2000,60,tr)
exten => _[123456789]XXXX,3,Congestion


it should be modified as such:

[xlite]
exten => _9.,1,Dial(Zap/4/${EXTEN:1},15)
exten => _9.,2,Congestion

What this means is that you'll have to dial 9 for an outside call. Right 
now your [xlite] context has no provision for dialing outside lines.

You might also want to remove the following sections from your [default] 
context:

exten => _9XXXXXXXXXX,1,Dial(Zap/4/${EXTEN:1})
exten => _9XXXXXXXXXX,2,Congestion

because this allows anyone dialing in to your main number to dial 
901222XXXX something and use your line to dial someone's maxis number!

out of curiosity, are you using asterisk in-house? If so and if you need 
help setting things up for a production PBX type installation for your 
company, feel free to contact me if you need assistance.
