| Summary: | Uang panai is the core requirement in a marriage in South Sulawesi.
It is commonly used to organize a wedding ceremony. The objective
of this paper is to examine the attitudes and perceptions of South
Sulawesi youth towards uang panai and its impacts on them. For this
study, a self-administered survey questionnaire was distributed to 154
South Sulawesi youth. The respondents are South Sulawesi youth aged
between 20-40 years old. Some of them have completed their tertiary
studies while others are currently pursuing theirs. All data were
analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)
version 24. The results show that South Sulawesi youth have positive
attitudes and perceptions towards uang panai and its impacts on them
have been relatively positive. The findings confirm that the amount of
uang panai is more important compared to mahar in Islam. They also
do not perceive uang panai as an expensive marriage custom in
Indonesia and uang panai does not cause problem among the men.
Uang panai is a South Sulawesi identity and this study endorses
