The Maldives 馬爾代夫

Divorce
離婚率最高

Ironically, given that it's so popular with honeymooners, the Maldives has a divorce rate of 10.97, earning it recognition in the Guinness Book of Records. The UN even estimates that the average Maldivian woman, by the age of 30, has been divorced three times.
諷刺的是,馬爾代夫是度蜜月勝地,可它卻有10.97%的高離婚率,創造了吉尼斯世界紀錄。聯合國估計,平均每位馬爾代夫女人在30歲前都離過三次婚。

Why is the rate so high in the Maldives? Various reasons have been cited. Perhaps the most compelling is that, as in other Muslim societies, where premarital sex is taboo, many marry young, but, under the country's mixed Sharia and common law system, they can then secure a divorce relatively easily when things don't work out. Others have blamed a lack of childcare facilities combined with a rise in women entering the workforce.
爲什麼馬爾代夫的離婚率這麼高?原因多種多樣。最令人信服的理由是,馬爾代夫和其他穆斯林國家一樣,婚前性行爲是禁忌。許多人結婚較早。但馬爾代夫的伊斯蘭教法和普通法律是並行的,在婚後感情不順的情況下,他們離婚相對較容易。有些人則認爲,高離婚率與托幼機構缺乏還有女性務工人數增加有關。
