That said, Kelvin Lim, executive director and group CEO of IPS Securex says the threat of terrorism still exists if it “took a back seat” from the ongoing macro events.
IPS Securex says it remains “well positioned” to help its customers re-assess their security concerns even as the threat of terrorism in Southeast Asia experienced a “steep decline” after the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Other factors such as the climate crisis, the coup in Myanmar, the Russo-Ukrainian war and the tensions between China and the US have also “dwarfed the relative severity of terrorism”.
