<![CDATA[Marriage agreements remain a frequently debated and somewhat sensitive issue within the context of matrimony in Indonesia, notwithstanding their explicit existence in the country's legal regulations. Governed by the Marriage Law Number 1 of 1974 and addressed in the Civil Code (KUHPerdata/BW), marriage agreements are formulated by spouses before the solemnization of the marriage.
