Singles who wish to get married are left out -
Well and good that the baby bonus is out. But that's if you are already married and plan to have babies, or more babies. What about the singles who wish to get married? It looks like the govt is not addressing their issues. And what are their issues? Here they are:

My comment and conclusion -
The baby bonus had to come anyway. That's because the govt knows that we are short of babies and our reproduction rate is way below what it should be.

The singles' needs and concerns are still not addressed.
