Love Post from China Post to curb Divorce

China's post office is not normally a place you would associate with love.
But the state-run institution in Beijing is promoting a scheme which it hopes will stem the country's rising number of divorces.
Newly-wed couples are being offered the chance to send sealed love letters which will be delivered seven years after their big day.
The idea is that couples thinking of splitting up will receive a timely reminder of why they got together in the first place.
Zhang Ying and Liu Cheng are a young Beijing couple about to tie the knot, but they want to factor in the seven-year itch.
So they are planning to take advantage of the post office's scheme and write letters to each other.
