Abstract
In many South-East Asian countries, marriage was nearly universal until the 1960s, and most marriages were arranged by parents. By the early 1970s, a trend towards delayed and non-marriage had emerged, with a decreased parental role in arranging the marriage. By 1990, the singulate mean age at first marriage for men and women had exceeded 25 years and 23 years, respectively, in most of the South-East Asian countries.
