Proposed Amendment to Women's Charter
While I believe enforcement is needed to safeguard the women & the children's interest, the issue i feel is that how can the man's interest be safeguard too.
I am currently going thu divorce
I had to pay interim maintanance yet my wife denied me any reasonable access to my children. I had tried all means (Getting a locksmith), "kipnapped" own children
call police and ended hand-cuffed becoz she charged at me (Can u believe this !!!).
I had not see my children for the past 10months.
I wonder when I am going to see them again especially when the court proceeding for divorce in singapore is extremely inefficient. My divorce had dragged on & coming to 2years and there is stilll no light
I was a divorcee and is now remarried. I have paid a lump sum to my ex-wife over a couple of years as stipulated in our divorce paper. I am still sore about the payment because we do not have any children and she is earning a comparable income.
Unlike some countries that have unfair treatment or laws towards woman, Singapore treats both sexes with equality and without prejudice. In fact, some women are earning more compared to the men and they are also better educated.
For example, the nominal alimony of $1 that is used to protect the women may extend to the men.
Hence, I proposed that the Women's Charter should be renamed Family's Charter and laws that are used to protect the woman should be applied to the men too. Women's Charter is an outdated model to adopt in this society
Let the law applies equally to both sexes. While there are men who are irresponsible, there are also women who are equally irresponsible.
Inefficient people working in the family court with so much delay even if you want to get divorced.
I'm married for 4 yrs & going for divorce.
Divorce finally filed after 4.5yrs after much delay with loose reasoning like need to change lawyers & so also much waiting or postpone.
Interim divorced finally out in 5.5 yrs.
Now 6.5 yrs & 3rd affidavit for ancilliary matters just completed & I'm still waiting for court hearing date.
No life if u want to get divorce & you cant even concentrate your work now.
Now waiting for court decision on how to split the man's asset & CPF & providing maintenence to my ex-wife.
Man still got to pay ex-wife no matter how bad or loose or rich is your ex-wife, as long she is a woman.
No consideration for man & it's nightmare for man that will never ends with those woman charter.
Should start a man charter.
A breakdown in marriage is not always the fault of the man. Who will protect the man interest? Where can the man turn to for help? Woman are calling for equal right, but when come to divorce, are they playing it fair and equal?
Singapore Laws are over protecting the women and causing cold feet to the man. It's time someone start a man charter and get the men their status back.
With Law tilted towards women, the man have to be submissive instead, to prevent a divorce threat from the wife. What have this world becomes? Men submissive to women?
