Sarawak Man Marries 2 Women At The Same Time, Makes M’sians Go ‘Can Ke?’

Double the happiness?
In Malaysia, a man is only allowed to legally marry one woman, unless he professes the Islamic faith which allows him to marry up to four wives at the same time.

Given this context, Malaysians were surprised to see photos of a non-Muslim man in Sarawak taking in two wives on social media, leaving them questioning its legality.

Based on the photos, the atmosphere was a cheery one, where the man is seen cutting the wedding cake and pouring champagne together with his two wives.

‘Is this even legal?’

Naturally, Malaysians were baffled to see the man marrying two women at the same time as he wasn’t a Muslim and wondered whether the union was permissible by law.

‘Does the law allow this?’
