    The husband failed to make full and frank financial disclosure; adverse inferences were drawn that his true means exceed the disclosed salary. Balancing the wife's demonstrated needs and the husband's means and conceded obligations, the court fixed interim personal maintenance for the wife at RM6,000 per month from March 2022 until decree nisi, ordered continuation of the car instalment for the respondent's use and continuation of the matrimonial home instalment, and ordered the husband to pay the daughter's education expenses in Japan when she pursues higher education.
