Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 3: Gerald Giam on cyber defence
Singapore's major telecommunication operators were targeted last year in a sophisticated cyber espionage campaign by group UNC3886. Such intrusions are a stark reminder that the digital battlespace has expanded into a theatre of strategic sabotage, said MP Gerald Giam. Speaking in parliament on Monday (Mar 2), he noted that while the containment of the espionage group demonstrates Singapore’s technical proficiency, the government must leverage this capacity to signal clear consequences.
