SPH's Straits Times website hacked

Anonymous hacker group claims responsibility.

According to a Straits Times news update, a hacker claiming to be affiliated with the Anonymous network infiltrated the newspaper's website.

The hacking incident came days after a threat from the same organization vowed to strike at The Straits Times if it did not publish an apology and fire a journalist who wrote what the organization deemed as a "misleading" report.

A spokesman for Singapore Press Holdings, which publishes the Straits Times and its websites, said the paper stands by its reports and reporters, according to the news update.

A police report has been filed and an official investigation underway. The affected blogs had been taken down, said SPH.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
