Singapore will pay their residents to become parents during the pandemic.
Singapore's deputy prime minister said the incentive will help reassure people who are facing financial pressures.
The country's economy has been hit hard, despite a largely successful public health response to the pandemic.
Officials say they have received feedback that Covid-19 has caused some aspiring parents to postpone their plans.
Officials said the payment would help parents with expenses but did not confirm how much would be paid out.
The fertility rate for the country now stands at just 1.14 births per woman, according to its national statistics body.
