Sim Ann on foreign organisations that may pose concerns to Singapore’s national security

The government publishes lists of individuals and entities for specific purposes related to national security. There are no plans to make public a broader list of foreign organisations that may pose concerns to Singapore's national security. Such a list may give rise to operational and security risks. Senior Minister of State for Home Affairs Sim Ann said this in reply to an MP’s questions in parliament on Wednesday (Apr 8). She also said regular publicity and outreach efforts are conducted to raise public awareness of security threats, including from foreign organisations of concern, such as foreign terrorist groups.
