Mother sets RM10 million dowry condition for daughter's suitor

Datuk A. Aida, a Malaysian producer and mother to singer Azeva, has set a high bar for any man hoping to court her daughter. She believes potential suitors must offer more than she, as a mother, has provided for Azeva. This includes gifts more valuable than the pink Rolex watch she has already given her daughter.

As an example, if I give her a pink Rolex watch, the person has to give a more expensive watch than that.

A. Aida is prioritizing Azeva's burgeoning career, advising her to steer clear of romantic entanglements for now. She stressed that financial security is paramount for long-term happiness, stating, "Love is not enough. In today's world, money is everything." She humorously suggested that a dowry of RM10 million would be considered if Azeva were to marry, underscoring the perceived value of her daughter and her career prospects.

“

It's not easy to approach my daughter, but at least that person can give her more than what I give.

The producer, who has invested significantly in raising Azeva, sees her daughter's current career trajectory as a prime opportunity to build wealth. She believes that accumulating assets will ultimately provide more security and freedom than a relationship based solely on affection. A. Aida's advice reflects a pragmatic view on relationships and financial independence, aiming to ensure her daughter's future well-being.

If you want to get married, a dowry of RM10 million I will accept and can be considered.
