Attack plot a 'rumour'

 

LAW Minister K. Shanmugam on Sunday dismissed as 'completely unverified rumour' recent media reports that there is a plot to attack the Apec Summit to be held in Singapore in November.

 

But Mr Shanmugam, who is also Second Home Affairs Minister, hastened to add that Singapore takes the security of the event very seriously.

 

Media reports last week quoted an intelligence analyst from the Centre for Intelligence and National Security in Indonesia as saying that investigations into last month's bombings in Jakarta had uncovered a plot to target the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) Summit being held in Singapore in November.

 

The probe supposedly revealed that terrorists also planned to use snipers to attack United States President Barack Obama's convoy during an expected visit to Indonesia around the same time.

 

Said Mr Shanmugam: 'Wherever the President of the United States, or various heads of states visit, you obviously take the appropriate security precautions.'

 

The minister was speaking on the sidelines of the Chong Pang Emergency Preparedness (EP) Day where a simulated bomb attack at a mock coffeeshop was also staged.

 

Asked about the likelihood of a terrorist attack in the heartlands, he noted that it was not just about being on guard against a terrorist attack, but being ready for any type of emergency.

 

'For a small country like us, this is not just an issue of preparing against terrorist attacks, it's creating a mindset and understanding within our population that (in) any kind of emergency, we are all able to respond,' said Mr Shanmugam.

 

Having events like EP Days helps, but people may forget or not hear about them. 'You've just got to keep doing it, keep raising awareness and keep engaging people,' he said.

 

The school-based Community Emergency Response Team (Cert) of Chong Pang constituency was also launched at the event on Sunday.
