Hello,

I normally send solicited messages based on the ads that users have engaged with but when it comes to addressing a malay woman, I'm not sure if I should address as CIK or PUAN (as I have no idea if they are married and obviously couldn't ask that question in the first part of my message).

Any idea? In English, I could simply address as madam, Ma'am or even Ms.
But is CIK acceptable as a generic term in addressing a malay woman?

Thanks

keep it simple la....female = cik and male = encik

even in western they hardly use madam, its kinda rude, especially at service center unless its a elderly person
