Abstract

This study aims to determine and analyse the utilisation of assets earned by Indonesian migrant workers (PMI) and its impact on their relationships in Tanjung Mas Jaya Village, East Mesuji Subdistrict, Mesuji Regency. The method used was a descriptive qualitative approach with field research in the form of case studies. Informants were selected purposively based on certain criteria, including migrant workers, their spouses, parents-in-law, and neighbours who had relevant experience, particularly related to the misuse of migrant workers' earnings. Data collection techniques included primary data in the form of interviews and documentation, as well as a literature study from secondary sources. The results of the study show that (1) the assets earned by migrant workers are often used by their spouses without prior agreement, contrary to the intended purpose of sending funds, such as for children's education, home renovations, or business capital. The causes include a lack of communication, the absence of a written agreement, and the influence of social pressure and the consumptive lifestyle of spouses in their home country; (2) the impact of this misuse on family relationships, namely the emergence of domestic disharmony, divorce, and psychological effects on children.

Abstract

Unregistered marriages remain prevalent in several rural areas in Indonesia, despite the implementation of mandatory marriage registration regulations. Previous studies have generally focused on the legal validity aspects of such marriages, while empirical research examining their impact on children’s access to rights at the local level remains limited. This study aims to fill this gap by analyzing the driving factors and impacts of unofficial marriages on the fulfillment of children’s rights in Wonosari Village, Mesuji Timur District, Mesuji Regency. This research is a field study employing a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis involving couples in unofficial marriages, parents, community leaders, and local government officials. The findings reveal that economic vulnerability, premarital sexual activity, and environmental and family pressure are the primary factors driving the occurrence of unofficial marriages. Children born from such unions face significant obstacles in obtaining legal identity documents, accessing formal education, and securing adequate legal protection. This situation places both children and women in a socially and juridically vulnerable position. While these unofficial marriages are considered religiously valid, they lack legal force. This study provides an empirical contribution by presenting local evidence regarding the linkage between unofficial marriages and the fulfillment of children’s rights. Consequently, it underscores the importance of policy interventions, including simplifying marriage registration procedures, improving access to civil registration services, and strengthening collaboration among the government, religious institutions, and community stakeholders in protecting children’s rights.
