After 2013, the divorce rate showed a slight decline, possibly due to more cautious attitudes towards marriage and the choice of more rational partners. However, in 2019, the divorce rate rose again, likely linked to social unrest and increased family pressures during the pandemic. Although there was a subsequent decline, the trend after 2021 indicates that the divorce rate may rise again, highlighting the fragility of marriage and its close connection to the social environment.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; The trend of marriage registrations in Hong Kong shows volatility, particularly a significant decline after 2019.
