Does anyone know anything about Malaysian child support laws ?

My ex wife (although we're not divorced yet) is making unreasonable demands regarding child support for our 6 year old girl I have seen once since birth, she went back to Malaysia. I have only received 2 photos in that time yet she expects me to cough up for her up keep. Its not that I dont want to support my child, I do but how can I be sure if I send money it will get spent on her and not wasted on crap by her mother ? I have a trust fund over here set up for my daughter so I am taking care of her in my own way, where do I stand with regards having to send her mother money to Malaysia. Help !!

Answers:
Your ex can apply to the CSA in UK.

If she does apply...and the CSA make an assessment.always check their calculations and be warned that it will be calculated from the date wife contacted them but it can take months even years before they contact you...by then arrears will be huge and payable

The CSA will deduct 15% of your net weekly earnings for 1 child. Other factors such as kids living with you will be taken into account
I dont know the answer but I am not sure (in any country) if there is way to make sure the child support money is spent only on the child and not anyone else.

I googled the web and unable to find anything specific re: malaysian child support laws.

perhaps you can try to contact the Malaysian Embassies in LA or NY.
