TAILIEUCHUNG - Elderly Health and Salaries in the Mexican Labor Market

In contrast two thirds of the elderly Muslim women indicated they did not visit the mosque during the past month. This is presumably a function of religious rules limiting access to the mosque for women. Although visiting the mosque does not differ greatly among Moslems in Phnom Penh and the provinces, older Moslems are less likely to do so. Praying is very common among Moslems. Over 90% indicated they prayed at least several times a week. This differs little between men and women but is more frequent among Moslems in the provinces than in Phnom Penh. | Red de Centros de Investigación de la Oficina del Economists Jefe Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo BID Documento de Trabajo R-353 Elderly Health and Salaries in the Mexican Labor Market Susan W.
