KUALA LUMPUR: An army of empowered Malaysian mothers is on the march thanks to a Facebook group aimed at increasing their economic power.

Their ranks have swelled to 30,000 members in less than three months and it is all thanks to Mejar Shera Ann Bosco, 39, a mother of a seven-year-old, and Indian expat engineer Umesh Narasimhaiah, 35.
