Abstract

Each tribe has a unique culture regarding the process of marriage; one of those is the Buginese in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. This tribe has a tradition by giving uang panai’ (money from the man (the groom) to the woman (the bride) as one of the main requirements before running the marriage’s process). This research aims to recognize the attitude held by Buginese women towards uang panai’. This study involves 111 Buginese women aged 18–28 years, who are living in Sulawesi and not married yet, as the research subjects. The data collecting process used a purposive sampling method and attitude questionnaire, which is arranged based on Baron and Byrne’s attitude theory. Based on the results, it was known that Buginese women acknowledged uang panai’ as an important part of the process of marriage party purposes. The respondents claim that they feel happy if they get married to a man who could give uang panai’ as requested even though they do not know that man beforehand. Therefore, Buginese women have a great tendency to fully agree with the high determination of that uang panai’.
