The Reconciliation Board functions to help a couple to reconcile if it is possible to do so. If only one party files for divorce, a letter to say that the marriage is irreconcilable from the Reconciliation Board is necessary before he/she can proceed.
It is important to note that the letter from the Reconciliation Board will allow a person to proceed to file divorce proceedings even though the other party does not agree to it.
It is necessary for the parties to attend the Board meeting, failure by both parties to attend the meeting will result in the Board calling for a fresh meeting sessions again, this will be a waste of time for the party who is really keen to have the divorce done with.
It used to be the case when both parties fail to turn up the Board will still issue a certificate for the parties to proceed with the divorce. But this practice seems to have changed. It is necessary now for at least one party to turn up for the meeting. As far as the blogger knows this is the case in Melaka.
