Plot to attack APEC Summit in S'pore an unverified
rumour
SINGAPORE: A reported terrorist plot to attack the APEC
Summit in Singapore is an unverified rumor, said Law Minister K
Shanmugam.
Mr Shanmugam said that just like other major summits
Singapore has previously hosted, the country will ensure that the
necessary security measures will be taken.
The plot involving the summit, which US President Barack
Obama is scheduled to visit in November, had allegedly been hatched
in Indonesia last year.
Mr Shanmugam, who is also Second Minister for Home Affairs, was
speaking on the sidelines of a community event in Yishun on
Sunday.
