When you added the phone number without the country code, did you use a different identifier than the first phone number. For example, if the first number was identified as iPhone, did you identify the second as Mobile or Other?
If you use your use your husband's name, rather than the relationship husband, it may remove one step in the process and allow it.
I don't know your customs, if using your husband's name in public is not proper, then maybe make a new contact for Husband and the phone number without the country code.
Remember that Siri is still in beta. I found this after a short web search. It is a video called "iPhone4s make Siri restricted countries by Apple". I have not tried it so use it at your own discretion.

Thank you for your responses. Yes I did all of that, removing country codes and identifying my husband and daughter. She understands who they are and what number to call and she makes the call then she says sorry but she can't make the call. She sends SMS to those numbers just fine, so I don't get the problem she has with making the calls. Other people in Asia facing same problem, it's weird.

I went on the web for this and it seems many people in Asia are having the same problem. A few of them solved it by deleting the country code from their phone number but deleting country code means I won't b able to identify the caller when a call comes through . Still I tried that too, deleting country code, don't work! She identifies my daughter and husband just fine, sends SMS to them, she attempts to make the phone call but then says sorry she can't! I don't understand that! She searches the web for me, opens app, opens music on my iTunes, all of that just fine, the problem is with making calls only. Help on this will be highly appreciated. Thank you

But says unable to make calls. I asked her to call my husband and then my daughter, she asked for their names which I gave, then she asked if she wants her to remember their names and I said yes! Then she tried to make the call but said sorry she can't make the call! Weird!
