The proposed changes under the Women's Charter (Amendment) Bill focus on the best interests of the child of the marriage and place importance on "therapeutic justice" and counselling. These are steps in the right direction, said MP Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim. Speaking in Parliament on Monday (Jan 10), he highlighted the need to sharpen support programmes for children and families, as well as safeguards to ensure that children caught in divorce battles are well protected.
