Marriage Fund abuse :: Khaleej Times

Quote:

Obaid Rashid Al Zahmi, Head of the UAE Marriage Funds, said that there are rich people who apply for the marriage grants worth Dh70,000, which is an uncivilised phenomenon.

He points out to the level of greed, which possesses unsatisfied souls for whom there is never enough. “The rules and regulations of Marriage Funds clearly specifies that the beneficiaries are supposed to be people with limited income, not the sons of businessmen, dignitaries and VIPs,” he said in an interview to Al Etihad newspaper.
