Gov’t to review Baby Bonus scheme

The government should focus on non-cash incentives to tackle the fertility rate problem.

Are couples really choosing not to have babies because of the high cost of living? If so, then money is the problem. If a problem can be solved by money, then it's not a problem -- Singapore Government is pretty rich.

It would be interesting to see what the government think is/are causing the low fertility rate.
