Marriage and ethnicity in West Malaysia.
"This paper will focus on ethnic differentials in the nuptiality of West Malaysia and on their evolution since the Second World War.  The growing similarity of nuptiality patterns in the Malay, Chinese, and Indian communities will be outlined and the influence of age and sex distributions on the observed changes will be examined.  The sources of data for this study are the 1947, 1957, and 1970 Population Censuses and the 1974 Malaysian Family and Fertility Survey."
