A female Malaysian leader’s suggestion about disciplining wives by “gently” striking them has sparked outrage. Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff who is the deputy minister for women, family and community development shared her advice in a two-minute Instagram video called “Mother’s Tips’.”
In the video, the minister has suggested that husbands can use various methods to discipline their wives first by speaking to them if they don’t listen then they should sleep separately for three days and in case they still persist with the same behaviour then “gently striking them to demonstrate his strictness”.
