Indonesian Female Marital Age

Wonderful news if reports are to be true, that Indonesia will be raising the age a women can marry to 19 years of age.

Currently it is 19 for boys and 16 for girls.

In a predominately muslim country, this appears to be a step in the right direction.

Considering the plight women tend to have to endure in these heavily theistic countries, is this welcome progress?

What are your thoughts?
