Divorce rates up amongst Muslim Malaysian and Indonesian married couples

According to the local chief Minister of Borneo the Island state that is administered by Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei the divorce rate amongst Muslims is rapidly rising with some estimates indicating the divorce rate may be as high as 50%.

Clearly the Minister is absolutely correct that Muslims couples are marrying far to early and as a result are unable or unwilling to take on the responsibilities that marriage entails. Going down the route of pre marriage courses may help but the bigger picture is the age factor which is why they seem to divorce within the first five years of marriage.
