Hidayat to enter second marriage
Wed, 04/16/2008 12:31 PM | National
JAKARTA: People's Consultative Assembly Speaker Hidayat Nur Wahid will marry 42-year-old doctor Diana Abbas Thalib on May 10 after a traditional proposal ceremony late Monday.
It will be his second marriage after the death of his first wife, Kastian, due to a thyroid gland disorder on Jan. 22 this year.
"I was introduced to Diana by my colleague Yoyoh Yusroh (a House of Representatives member), who is also Diana's tutor in Koran reading," Hidayat said as quoted by detik newsportal.
He was introduced to Diana last month and the two have only met three times.
"Even though we have only met several times, we know each other's personalities and backgrounds, and have the same goals in life," said Diana, who is CEO of a hospital in Pondok Bambu, East Jakarta.
Hidayat has four children from his first marriage. It will be Diana's first marriage. -- JP
