Singapore to fund first dates via government dating website
Original: Singapore will pay for young people's first dates if they use the government's new dating website The bill is covered if
Singapore's government has launched a dating website that will cover the cost of a young person's first date, provided they meet someone the platform matched them with. The scheme, aimed at encouraging young Singaporeans to date and form relationships, has drawn widespread attention and amused debate online, with many calling the state-sponsored matchmaking approach unusual but characteristic of Singapore's hands-on social policy.
Why now: The novelty of a government literally paying for citizens' first dates is striking and sparks debate about state involvement in private life.
