Fucking PAP always harping on the low birth rate, how NS is in jeopardy due to decreasing numbers, etc. But they allow foreign countries to come in and adopt sinkie babies? WTF? This is a first for me. Are there no sinkie childless couples that want to adopt kids. I used to remember growing up that Malay families would take unwanted chinese kids into their family. What happened to that?

Singapore has barred British nationals from adopting children here.

This is believed to be the first time citizens from any particular country are not allowed to adopt in Singapore.

The move is a response to the United Kingdom's decision in January to drop Singapore from a list of countries where it recognises adoptions automatically.

A British High Commission spokesman told The Sunday Times that Singapore was removed from the list as it has not signed the Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption.
