Klappentext

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Social Development Unit (SDU) is a governmental body which works closely with the community and commercial sectors to foster opportunities for singles to interact in social settings in Singapore. Besides coordinating and facilitating matchmaking services and dating activities offered by the private sector, it also serves to educate the public on singlehood issues. Other responsibilities of the SDU include providing the necessary infrastructure and support for the dating industry, as well as to ensure the professionalism of dating agencies through an accreditation council that was formed in 2007.It is worth noting that SDU's role in the industry has not always been that of facilitating and crediting. When it was first set up in 1984, it functioned on its own, organising activities for its members without the help of commercial agencies. It was only in 2006 that the SDU decided on a major change in approach: it put the private sector in charge of matchmaking, focusing instead on accrediting and funding private dating agencies and projects.
