Maybe Singapore's cybersecurity weakness exposed that led to hackers choice to pick on SingTel's subsidiary, Optus data breach.
Could Singapore's cybersecurity weakness is world famous.

The Straits Times
"Sixth-placed Singapore had almost 5,900.
Globally, 308,000 databases detected last year were potentially open to hackers.
This comes at a time when cyber threats here have grown. A Cyber Security Agency of Singapore report last July showed that "zombie" devices linked to the Internet and infected with malware that allows hackers to control them and launch cyber attacks, trebled in numbers here during the pandemic."
