You shouldn't change existing objectclass/attribute names, if that's
what you mean.  I would create one or more new files in
/usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/
with your objectclasses and attributes, and put
	include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/your-file
in slapd.conf.

> objectClass ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.13200.1.4.3 NAME 'BPK Penabur'

That's one way, sure.  That OpenLDAP chose .1.4.* as a suffix for
attributes does not mean you have to do the same, though.  You could
e.g. use
   .<project>.<1=attrs, 2=objectclasses>.<attr/objclass>

BTW, note that NAME should not contain space.
