Tokyo, Japan -- (SBWIRE) -- 05/26/2011 -- Singles looking to find that Mr. or Mrs. Right could only hope that their own government would offer to help facilitate the process. Dating isn’t typically seen as a national priority, but low marriage and birth rates in Japan have attracted the attention of the country’s leaders. Understanding that healthy marriages and growing families create stable societies, Japan is on the cutting edge worldwide in an effort to marry off her citizens and increase the national birthrate.
