Free honeymoons in Terengganu
Oct 14th, 2009 by admin
As have government entities in other countries, Malaysia’s state of Terengganu
is now offering a three-day honeymoon package worth about $450 to help couples with marital difficulty reconcile and avoid divorce. While Malaysia did not reveal its divorce rate, the story describes the rate as “soaring”. Malaysia is a predominantly Muslim country, and it’s for that reason that I can rationalize a government official being willing to be quoted as saying “We can understand newlyweds having problems understanding one another, where a slight skirmish could lead to a separation but it is unacceptable for those married more than two decades to file for divorce.” Bon voyage!
