Sarawak-Kalimantan cross border marriages.

back of bride

Marriages between borders sound romantic but one should tread the path with caution. The problem is the different cultures, norms and values.

Case 1
I met a woman today. She is a grandmother but misses her grandchildren. She last saw them last Harvest Festival ( Gawai Dayak ) or June last year when the youngest was two months old.

What happened? Her son met a pretty Indonesian woman. They fell in love and got married despite parental protests. She was a worker in a factory and bore him two sons. The problem was she had to leave the country every now and then because of visa problems and this caused extreme financial hardship to the husband. The children were beautiful.

A 45-year-old man who rejected a woman’s proposal of marriage has reported to the police of death threats made to him. Prior to this he had found out that his girl friend who worked in an entertainment outlet had threatened to get people to do the job for her.

Romance and courtship via internet chatrooms

ininternet romance

It was not the conventional way of meeting but the end result was the same. They fell in love and will get married on the 1st of July.

So, how did they meet? They met through the internet and chatted with each other as strangers. Nowadays there are the MIRC, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, ICQ ..just to name but a few. Slowly as they got to know each other, the guy, businessman Lee Kok Kuan, finally found the ‘oomph’ to ask the lady, Ng Sin Yee out on a date. Their first meeting must have been like a blind date. Where shall we meet, how will you be dressed, will he or she like me in person, what if he or she is disappointed in me…. all these thoughts must have flashed through their minds.

Divorce

December 20 2006

A man meets a woman…they fall in love and then they go through the courtship ritual. Fall in love is the phrase society uses to describe this phenomena.

The guy gives the lady gifts, they hold hands and they think their love will last forever. The Prince Charming and Beautiful Princess scenario. In our Malaysian context marriage is a very serious business. A big sum of money is spent on the celebrations. Marriage is an open declaration to the world that they have found their ideal love partner. Read more »

My beautiful, young bride from China

I am a 40 plus senior administrator. After so many years of working life, I am financially secure and reached as far up the promotional ladder as I can before my retirement.

Sometimes, when I wake up in the morning and look at myself, I can’t imagine already I am so old. My tummy is still so flat and apart from a wrinkle around my upper lip I still look younger than my age. I am also a conscientious dresser and a perfectionist.
