What's the buzz

The Jiangsu provincial government has decided to forego the 9-yuan ($1.5) fees to register a marriage or divorce from July 1. Will the move have any effect on couples seeking to get married or those seeking divorce? Below are the opinions of some of China Daily's readers:
I support the decision of the Jiangsu provincial government. Judging from our current consumption levels, 9 yuan is by no means a large amount for any couple. Therefore, I do not think the provincial government's decision to cancel the fees will prompt more couples to get married. Rather, it reveals that marriage has nothing to do with money and that true love is priceless.
