A relative of mine just whatsapp me the SMS from Stinkhealth regarding this person name, IC , address, gender, race, birth & medical records were accessed but not affected, so was the Mobile & Financial info were unaffected.That means the hackers have tons of MOBILE NUMBERS & BANK ACCOUNT NUMBERS...
I told my relative to archive that SMS, to hold them responsible in case bank acct numbers, mobile numbers were breached any be careful with any request for money...or even threathening, intimidating messages...

SINGAPORE: SMS notifications have been sent to more than 700,000 patients to inform them if their data were stolen in the cyberattack, the health operator said in a statement on Saturday (Jul 21).
These individuals had visited SingHealth's specialist outpatient clinics and polyclinics between May 1, 2015 and Jul 4 this year, which is the period when 1.5 million patient records were accessed and copied by hackers.
The remaining SMS notifications will be sent over the next two days, SingHealth said.
About 150,000 patients do not have their mobile phone numbers registered with SingHealth; these individuals will receive letters within one week to inform them if they are affected.
SingHealth's update on patient engagement came a day after news broke that its IT system had been a target of the "most serious" breach of personal data in Singapore's history.
The cyberattack, which occurred from Jun 27 to Jul 4 this year, led to 1.5 million SingHealth patients’ records accessed and copied, of which 160,000 had their outpatient dispensed medicines’ records taken.
Among those affected were Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong.

The Business Times, a publication by Singapore Press Holdings (SPH), cited just two sources and claimed that the Government’s response to the massive Singhealth data breach has been “lauded”.
This, despite the fact that the breach that affected 1.5 million patients was only announced yesterday – 16 days after unusual activity was first detected on Singhealth IT databases on 4 July; 10 days after the Ministry of Health was given confirmation that the unusual activity was due to a cyber attack on 10 July; and 8 days after the authorities made a police report.
In making the point that the Singapore government has been praised for how it has handled the breach so far, the Business Times cited two sources.
The first, PwC partner Tan Shong Ye, noted that the government “responded swiftly” to the incident and said that it is “good that action was taken immediately after the threat was detected to minimise the risk of further data exfiltration.”
The second source, cybersecurity company FireEye’s Asia Pacific branch president Eric Hoh, said that he hopes more governments would follow Singapore’s lead in disclosing breaches.

Imagine what cybersecurity they can have for the $407 million (S$387 million Youth Olympics and $20mm Trump/Kim meet)-not to mention the billions lost by Temasek and other govt entities like Keppel (in Brazil) ect2
Are we going to let them waste our hard earned taxpayers monies again and again and fucked up like that without accountability?
They deserve the highest salaries in the world?
