In general, the implementation of marriage is preceded by a marriage contract and inaugurated by means of baralek. Unlike the Lengayang area, one of them in Kampung Akat, the implementation of the marriage contract was preceded by a baralek event. This is a marriage phenomenon that distinguishes it from other regions. The baralek tradition before the marriage contract is carried out by the community because it is already a culture that is received from generation to generation and to maintain the consistency of their customs.
