Last update: 5 hours agoGovernment & Society: Singapore rolled out “FirstDate”, a government-run dating service for public-sector employees aged 21–35, using the Nobel-winning Gale-Shapley matching algorithm and a tightly controlled process (one proposed match at a time, 72-hour accept/reject window) as the city-state grapples with a record-low fertility rate and loneliness. Public Health & Community: A new dementia support facility, the Voices for Hope Centre in Toa Payoh, opened as Singapore’s first Age Well Neighbourhood-style, dementia-friendly community hub for patients and caregivers. Transport & Regional Links: The revised RTS Link timeline—pushing the February 2027 target—was framed as giving room for final system tests, trial runs, safety certification and approvals, with both sides’ infrastructure described as substantially complete. Policy & Governance: Singapore also moved to decriminalise minor petroleum licence breaches via a Petroleum Amendment Bill, signalling a shift in how regulators handle low-level offences. Innovation & Economy: MAS leadership reshuffles and ongoing support for asset managers and equity schemes continued to shape the week’s governance and market-policy backdrop.
