Marriage
Marriage is an inner and outer bond between a
man and a woman as husband and wife with
the aim of forming a happy family
(household).
SHOUSIKA

Shousika is a phenomenon that occurs in

Japan. Currently, Japan is experiencing a
decline in birth rates. This is caused by the
decreasing marriage rate. Japanese people
choose to be reluctant to get married and live
alone rather than building a household
commitment in their lives.
In Indonesia, there are still many pro and contra about
marriage. However, the marriage rate is still stable
even though it increased in 2020. This happened
because of the pandemic, so they chose to get married
to stabilize the economy.
Some areas still have the idea that getting married will bring good
fortune. even parents do not hesitate to marry off their underage
children. The practice of underage marriage in Indonesia is caused
by various things. Starting from the influence of customs,
community habits, religion, economic factors, low education, to
teenage relationships which cause unwanted pregnant.

to be free, his enthusiasm for working hard due to increasing working
hours means he is too busy with work. they prioritize work over
romantic relationships. Compared to Japan, Indonesia has a high
marriage rate. This is caused by economic factors, customs and
promiscuity which cause pregnancies outside of marriage. If in Japan
you choose to get rich first and then get married, in Indonesia get
married first and you will be very rich.
