In the Malaysian cases referred to here the divorce would more likely be in the context of ending a business contract with a different family than giving your sweetheart the cold shoulder.
'Your famiy's property and influence is no longer essential to the furthered prosperity of mine. I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you'.
Doesn't sound that cold really.
