Abstract

Early marriage remains a social issue in Moloku Village, West Gane District, South Halmahera Regency. Adolescents who marry before the age of 19 often lack the physical, psychological, social, and economic readiness required for married life. This study aims to identify the factors contributing to early marriage among adolescents in the village. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, with data collected through interviews. The participants consisted of six adolescents who married at the age of 19 years or younger. The findings indicate that early marriage is influenced by economic difficulties, premarital pregnancy, low educational attainment, inadequate parental supervision, free social interaction, and socio-cultural influences. The most dominant factors were premarital pregnancy and family economic conditions. The study also identified regional, environmental, and spatial factors, as the community is characterized by a traditional and relatively homogeneous environment that limits social interactions within a confined spatial context. It is concluded that early marriage results from interconnected internal and external factors. Therefore, continuous education, stronger parental involvement, and increased awareness of the consequences of early marriage are essential to reduce its occurrence among adolescents.

Abstract

The phenomenon of Indonesian migrant workers is one that confronts structural complexities in Indonesia, both in the realm of regulatory issues and in the realm of social protection. By 2025, the number of migrant workers in Indonesia is projected to reach 296,948, with the majority employed in the domestic sector as household workers. This study uses a literature review to examine the issues facing migrant workers. Several analyses have emerged regarding the situation of migrant workers, including the weakness of regulations due to overlapping laws, limited social policies—particularly regarding social protection, social security, old-age security, and social policies for migrant workers within the realm of diplomacy aimed at ensuring their social protection. Additionally, issues such as poverty and socio-economic limitations in education also influence the situation of Indonesian migrant workers, particularly regarding the “role set” of the work they perform, which often involves quite complex dynamics—especially regarding differing role distributions and and conflicts. Consequently, issues regarding the social protection of migrant workers require solutions based on structural analysis—encompassing regulatory aspects and social policies for migrant workers—as well as solutions rooted in addressing the fundamental problems faced by Indonesian migrant workers.
