“…From the below clusters we can see how the moral issue about marriage is closely related to issue on gender, tradition, and then religion. Marriage in Indonesian is more about social life [2]. In the other hand, we can see that issues on social leadership, justice, religions, and national defense are related cognitively.…”

The paper reports some insights that is acquired in the online survey observing the moral politics among Indonesian. The survey maps the participant's responses into two dimensional axis of political ideology, comprised by the source of moral virtues (ethic-esoteric) and the method to achieve them (progressive-conservative).

The observation also brings some insights from information theory, regarding to the uncertainty within the political minds as captured by the survey.

“…Sebagian besar studi yang saya temukan mengenai subjek itu kebanyakan mengkaji permasalahan legalitas dari sudut pandang hukum baik mengenai masalah legalitas perkawinan, proses legal ketika terjadi perceraian, permasalahan kewarganegaraan, maupun hak anak (Yasmin 2011;Zachraina 2008;Bedner 2010). Selain itu, sebuah studi telah dilakukan di Malaysia oleh Giok Hun Pue (2013) mengenai perkawinan antaretnis: penulis ini berargumen bahwa permasalahan yang timbul di dalam sebuah perkawinan campuran banyak disebabkan oleh faktor eksternal, seperti pandangan negatif, tekanan, dan ekspektasi dari keluarga ataupun lingkungan sekitar, serta sistem legalitas negara yang tidak mendukung perkawinan campuran.…”

“…Similarly in Indonesia, Muslims who make up the vast majority of the country's population, tend to rely heavily upon public and communal witness of their marriage (Andaya 2006;Robinson 2009), where 40% of all marriages are thought to be solely conducted according to religious and customary law (Cammack 2009;Mulia 2009). In both Cambodia and Indonesia then, the social importance attached to marriage remains high and community recognition of a couple's marriage is often more important rather than that of the state (Idrus 2003(Idrus , 2009Mulia & Cammack 2007;Bedner & van Huis 2010;Platt 2010).…”

“…In recognising the outlined complexity of non-legal forms of marriage, a number of studies have suggested, that because these marriages are not subject to formal state law, they can offer women a high degree of flexibility and even augment their agency (Bedner & van Huis 2010;Platt 2010). Yet a discourse of victimisation surrounding non-legal forms of marriage also persists.…”

Placing contemporary marriage and its dissolution at its heart, this paper explores rural women's experiences of customary and legal unions in Cambodia and Indonesia. We contend that women's navigation in-between 'informal' ethics and morals versus 'formal' state-sponsored legal doctrine constitute a form of 'everyday politics' that has been unduly neglected. Critiquing the taken-for-granted nature of marriage in academic scholarship, we show how the axiomatic notion that marriage registration is inherently beneficial to women is complicated by the nonlinear and mobile trajectories of conjugality in our two case study communities. In turn, we call for marriage and its breakdown to receive more sustained and nuanced analysis as the primary unit of Southeast Asian life.
