On 21 and 22 October 2024 , the Global Anti-Scam Summit (GASS) Asia took place. This year, we had the honor of welcoming Ms. Sun Xueling , Minister of State for the Ministry of Home Affairs & Ministry of Social and Family Development , who opened the event with an inspiring speech that set the tone for the rest of the summit.
Attendees also had the opportunity to join a fireside chat with Mr. Tan Kiat How , Senior Minister of State for the Ministry of Digital Development and Information & Ministry of National Development . As a patron of GASA Singapore , Mr. Tan shared valuable insights on the crucial role of digital development in combating scams and driving sustainable growth and innovation across the region.
The Global Anti-Scam Summit served as a unique platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and strengthening regional partnerships. We look back on a meaningful gathering with distinguished speakers, thought leaders, and participants, all working together toward a safer, more digitally secure future across Asia and beyond.
