1 marriage, 1 divorce here so I am at 100%
make it 50% and holding
Do you mean mixed marriages?
Like between men and women?
I hear those mail-order bride things don’t last that long. Normally the 80-year-old fart dies after the first couple of years of being married to his 34-year-old bride.
Hope that helps.

That can not be considered divorce.
I only know approx. 10-15 Taiwan-“Western” mixed marriages, and I only heard about 1 divorce.
Of around 50-75 marriages that involves family or friends of my own generation at home, I know about 5 that have gotten a divorce.
So, around 7-10% in both cases. Not too scary.
Getting interested in this, as my local princess and me have plenty of storms, but the sunshine gets rare. ![]()
Does it mean anything when she sends me a flight schedule by email ???
:s
EDIT:
some info about divorce in TWN. Rates seem to go up to 25-30% now, not restricted to TWN-foreign marriages

EDIT2: Taipei times mentions much lower figures (but of 2002):
[quote]But some government officials and experts think the increase in cross-cultural marriages could be the most crucial contributing factor to the soaring divorce rate.[/quote] But they talk about TWN men with Vietnam wife and likewise here.
