Rules, rules and more rules. Traditions!! And yet, as I was talking to some one in a government department this afternoon, the younger generation suffers because of certain traditions. Like marriage and buying cows (or sometimes it is only an exchange of money) for your brides father. The youngsters cannot afford those traditions in the current economic environment in this country. There is a lot of unemployment. The ladies are unhappy as well since they cannot get married because of the high demand that traditions put on them. All the ceremonies, the big families that will come to the wedding (300 people is normal), the presents for the families and in-laws (and don't you dare take a short cut - it is seen as disrespectful). It sometimes takes many years of heavy saving to be able to afford to get married.
