Malaysian State Mulls Polygamy Incentive

A Malaysian state run by an Islamic opposition party is considering rewarding Muslim men who take on divorced women as their second, third or fourth wives.

Wan Ubaidah Omar, a lawmaker responsible for women's affairs in northern Kelantan state, said a male colleague had proposed "that men should take up divorcees as second wives... and proposed the government should give incentives to these men."
