They all had a great experience, made some friends, learned a little, and enjoyed traveling throughout Taiwan. Only 1 couple I know of ended up getting married.

Anyway, the older generation of Jews have the same issue with younger Jews partnering with non-Jews, and there are multiple such pairings among my relatives (although sometimes the kids are raised as Jewish--I believe a hapa cousin of mine has settled in Israel). So no surprise about the Israeli program encouraging romance. I see a lot of AM-WF couples here in San Francisco.
