Article on marriage and divorce trends in Hong Kong

Men and women in Hong Kong showed a tendency towards delayed marriage during the period 1981 to 1993, as indicated by a continuous increase in the median age at first marriage.

This finding is set out in a special review article entitled "Marriage and Divorce Trends in Hong Kong 1981-1993" of the November issue of the Hong Kong Monthly Digest of Statistics.

The number of re-marriages was on the rise, echoing an increasing number of divorces in the same period.
