NEVER apply 'adultery' as reason(s) for divorce coz this could be lengthy, costly and complicates the mediation.
This is meant for the rich, vengeful ones. Best goes for incompatible personality etc. to save lawyer fees.
Next, whoever fork out from CPF will be returned accordingly to his/her CPF accounts - No question ask, regardless of divorce or separation.
Hence, its pointless fighting on this!
Last, custody or alimony will by default goes to the woman/mother - especially if she's a housewife. Its usually pointless to to fight for custody on the husband/father during preliminary cases until proof of evidences that mother (or her environments) is 'disastrous' to the growing-up of kids. But kids above 14 have the right to choose!
Now for TS' case, its unsure if the husband has any further dependencies, limitations and shortfalls in this case. Else, S$53K or whatsoever amount is very too small to mention in court.... likely to be mediated to save time, effort & further $$$.
But husband needs to be careful what he must be very sure and wise to alimony agreements next......
Imagine if kids beg papa to pay for a holiday with mommy, papa works day-&-night to satisfy kids (since he cannot join them)
then come when kids tell papa how enjoyable their trips were with mommy & "uncle"......
this is more painful than squeezing your own balls!
Good luck!
There is welfare lawyer the cheaper type to engage since there is no better choice

Whether it is you or your good friend,
please seek legal advice.
It is money well spent.
Agree. Cohabitation solves lots of headaches.Atb not for marriage
You are right.
But the guy really has no money.
When he started up the family, he earned a low income which I think less than 2k.
He relied on the overtime monthly but it was cut off by his management due to a supervisor who held person grudges against him.
His overtime was taken away for 5 years or more and he started taking loan from banks.
Because of that, he couldn't give much pocket money to the wife who quarreled with him and manhandled the kids almost everyday.
Anyway your points are noted and thanks.
Bro, for my friend's case, he proved adultery of his ex-wife.. ex-wife dropped custody fight (she visits weekly only, care and control under my friend) and also agreed on no ex-spousal maintenance, hdb flat sold on open market and both take 50/50 as per the tenancy stated share portion when bought. All done without going to court, just agreement by lawyers. his ex-wife remarried to her boyfriend and now the kid is closer to my friend than her. He is not rich, but wants custody of the child badly, so did his homework (PI, photos, logs and the full works) before going to lawyer. Anyway, not applicable to this case as TS stated no 3rd party.
This proves that only fools get married. The institution of marriage is a sham.
Personally I believe the total amount should be $46,000 + $53,000 but I am not sure and that's why I ask here.
Anyway according to the defendant, the amount of the cpf money was derived from 45% of the defendant's asset. Because the judge earlier awarded this proportion to the wife based on her contribution to the marriage and the length of the marriage (13 yrs).
The defendant understands that he needs to give a share to the bitch be it under the law or morally.
But he can't agree on the proportion.
...liddat also can link to our Great Forum Virgin.Imagine the girl below is Ginfreely, sweet and beautiful. But would it be wise to marry, or have a long term relationship with her despite her beauty?
For Sinkie men, please bear the WC in mind and marry a woman for her character, compatibility with your personality, potential to be a good mother, etc.

back to TS case..... "incompatible/clashes in personality" will usually speed up divorce process with little or no challenges, whereas "3rd party or fidelity can easily trigger retaliation or even legal "physiological warfare" with all parties that complicates the most if 1 of the involved (including 3rd party) wanna get even!
lots of $, time, and leg-works just to get even???? worth????
in the end, the kidz will be the biggest victim(s) when parents divorce.
That's what's I thought too earlier. So I had to re-read the para several times since the word "another" was used in 3a(1)(ii). Best for Abang to clarify directly and hopefully, you are right.
