Description
Teenage Pregnancy in Cambodia
In Cambodia, the arranged married still happens in all around the
state’s especially the rural area due to the family situation,
customary, and the lack of the education. That are the reason why
the teenage Pregnancy happen in Cambodia. According to Civil
Code Book 7 Article. 948 “Marriageable age” Neither men nor
women may marry until they have reached the age of 18. However,
should one of the parties have attained the age of majority and the
other party be a minor at least 16 years of age, the parties may marry
with the consent of the parental authority holders or guardian of the
minor. This article can describe that citizen can get married at the
age of 18 but if there are the acceptance from the parent 16 is OK.
Whether we have the law to control of this case but sometimes it is
useless. According to Prof. Dr, Ek Mengly (Gynecologist and
Obstetrician) said that the age of married for women should be 25
and give the birth in next 2 years because there wouldn’t be any
risky for women especially their career. This research topic is still
the hot issue in the developing country and everyone should aware
of it.
The 2014 Cambodian Demographic and Health Survey (CDHS)
reported a sudden increase in teenage fertility rates, raising concern
for the health of young Cambodian women and their babies. The
CDHS findings showed that while age-specific fertility rates have
consistently declined for 15-19-year-olds, fertility jumped from 46
children per 1,000 women in 2010 to 57 children per 1,000 women
in 2014. Teenage pregnancy in Cambodia has increased by 50
percent in the past four years, according to a report by Save the
Children. The increase rate of fertilized would make the matter for
the society.
Significances in this research is brought to you the rate of the
teenage pregnancy in Cambodia. Especially, the limitation of the
law to control on the issue.
The purpose of this research is to ensure that there would have the
institution which has the authority to control the issue. I hope
teenager would have the better education and occupation for having
a better life before married and having the pregnant.
 What is the effect of teenage pregnancy?
 What should we do in order to cut down the rate?
 Is Education the main reason to decrease the fertilized rate?
 What policy should the Royal Government have to prevent
underage marriages?
 Is forcing a child to marry at a young age guilty?
