This could be a bad news for Malaysian women, reported that more non-Malaysian men, like ethnic Chinese and Indian, chose to marry foreign women from countries such as China, Vietnam and Thailand, with Indonesians topping the list of brides, while the trend of local women marrying foreign men is on the decline. Deputy Home Minister Datuk Tan Chai Ho revealed that 33,995 marriages between local men and foreign women were registered from 2001 to June this year.
Indonesian women were the top pick of Malaysian men with 2,036 marriages registered in 2005, up sharply from 1,386 in 2001.”The number of such Malaysians who married foreigners increased from 3,953 in 2000 to 7,277 last year. The statistics show an upward trend,” he added. The intervening years saw 4,085 Malaysian men marrying foreign spouses in 2001, 4,847 (2002), 5,123 (2003), 5,701 (2004) and 7,277 (2005).

Any explain why Malaysian men preferred foreign wives? “As far as I know, and from what had been conveyed to me by men who married foreigners, the demands of these foreign women are not as excessive as their Malaysian counterparts. They are also unassuming and soft-spoken,” Datuk Tan answered.
On local non-Muslim women marrying foreigners, Tan said the figures between 2001 and June was far lower than men. “Non-muslim women seem to be settling down with Britons, Singaporeans, Taiwanese, Americans and Indian nationals.
British men were most popular with Malaysian women, with 169 marriages registered in 2005 compared to 149 in 2001, followed by Indian men with 86 marriages in 2005 from 71 in 2001.

Speaking to reporters later, he dismissed a suggestion that the influx of foreigners into the country was a factor in more local men marrying foreign women. “Probably the reason is the cost of marriage,” he said, adding that the ministry would take firm action if the marriages were not transparent.
The statistics did not include marriages for Malay Muslims, who account for 60 percent of Malaysia’s 26 million people and are required to register their marriage with the Islamic religious department.

Tan also disclosed that the trend of divorce among non-Malay couples was increasingly worrying with 24,190 divorces being registered from 2001 to May this year. He did not give a reason for the divorce rate going up in the report. Tan and other ministry officials could not be reached for comment.
The report said that about 30% of the couples separated due to incompatibility, financial reasons (20%), sexual problems (10%), physical and mental abuse (10%), extra marital (10%), irresponsibility (10%) and other reasons such as religious conversion, health and drug problems (10%).
