China bans online love for soldiers
Beijing:
China's military officers have added matchmaking to their duties, after the government banned troops from online dating overs fears that lonely hearts might let sensitivities information slip, state media said on Monday.
Commanders of the million-strong People's Liberation Army (PLA) are studying how to help single service members find love, the officials China Daily said on new rules governing what troops can and can't do online.
Blogs are out, along with Internet dating, online job hunts, and even making friends in the virtual world under the internal affairs regulation, which came into effect on June , the report said.
"People with ulterior motives may make use of the soldiers' personal information and pose a threat to the safety of the army," Yang Jigui,an officer in Tibet, was quoted by the people's Liberation Army Daily as saying.
