SG warns against travel to Sri Lanka

Travellers were advised to purchase comprehensive travel insurance.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) advised Singaporeans to defer all non-essential travel to Sri Lanka amidst growing unrest in the country.

In an advisory, the MFA strongly encouraged those who will need to travel to Sri Lanka to purchase comprehensive travel insurance and familiarise themselves with its terms and coverage.

For Singaporeans who are already in Sri Lanka, the MFA advised them to avoid public places where there are protests and large gatherings of people.

“Monitor the news closely and heed the instructions of the local authorities. Those in need of consular assistance may contact the Singapore Honorary Consulate-General in Colombo or the 24-hour MFA Duty Office,” said the MFA.

Sri Lanka President Gotabaya Rajapaksa is expected to step down this week. He was forced to leave his official residence after protesters massed outside the president's office and residence.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
