More getting married later or not at all


KUALA LUMPUR: Fewer Malaysian men and women want to tie the knot now compared with 10 years ago.

A recent survey by the National Population and Family Development Board on trends between 2000 and 2007 indicated that the average marriage age of marrying Malaysians would increase to 33 years by 2015 or they may choose not to get married at all.
