Are Singapore’s companies taking the ‘not if, but when’ approach to terrorism?

SINGAPORE (June 9): While companies seize every opportunity to crow about their financial performance to investors, and burnish their public image with information about their social responsibility programmes, they appear to be far less willing to talk about what they do to protect their employees and property from terrorist attacks.

When contacted by The Edge Singapore about their anti-terrorism and security initiatives, many companies in Singapore declined to say anything.

These include both integrated resorts: Marina Bay Sands, which was the target of a planned attack last August, and Resorts World Sentosa, whose sister resort in Manila was hit by a lone attacker on June 2.
