Women, Family and Community Development Deputy Minister Dato Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff has been heavily criticised for her recent videos that provided tips for married couples, in which she tells women to take a “soft approach” with their husbands, and for husbands to use “gentle” physical touch to discipline their wives.
