Abstract
Singapore's government prevents religious control of the state but remains open to religious participation in public life on a pluralistic basis—a pattern that can be seen especially clearly in the area of social services. To engender a self-help ethos, rather than welfare dependency, the government encourages the privatization of compassion, through encouraging volunteerism, partnering with voluntary welfare organizations, and aiding their work through government subsidies and legal frameworks. Social services provided by voluntary welfare organizations in Singapore include elder care, educational services, support for the disabled, rehabilitation services for drug addicts, residential institutions for the destitute, and family counseling services.
