Addressing child marriage issue


Creating awareness: Posters extolling the ideal age for marriage in the regency of Ponorogo, Indonesia.

I WAS in the city of Ponorogo in East Java in February this year. Ponorogo is famous for its culture and tradition. People from that part of Java have migrated to Peninsular Malaysia, with many settling in Johor and Perak.

It is in the kabupaten (regency) of Ponorogo that I saw many posters extolling the ideal age for marriage (usia ideal menikah).
