Singapore and Hong Kong team up to combat telecom scams

The parties will collaborate on three areas.

Singapore’s Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Hong Kong’s Office of the Communications Authority (OFCA) have teamed up to combat scams across telecommunications channels.

The parties will collaborate on three areas to fight telecommunications scams, including providing assistance and cooperation related to scam telephone calls and text messages through mutual information exchanges.

IMDA and OFCA will also facilitate research and education on scam telephone calls and text messages.

Lastly, the agencies will facilitate a shared cross-jurisdictional approach to deal with relevant regulatory issues and consumer protection.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
