Singapore's Kiria Tikanah wins bronze at Asian Fencing C'ships and praise from coach
Kiria Tikanah Abdul Rahman won the bronze medal in the women's individual eepe at the Asian Fencing Championships. PHOTO: BIZZITEAM SINGAPORE – In clinching a joint-bronze at the Asian Fencing Championships on June 19 , Singapore epee fencer Kiria Tikanah Abdul Rahman finished on the podium of the continental meet for the first time. But the world No. 70 said she was 'more relieved than excited' to win silverware for the Republic after she went down fighting in the semi-finals against South Korea's world No. 1 Song Se-ra, before losing 15-12 at the Westin Resort Nusa Dua in Bali, Indonesia . 'I was stuck at the top 16 for many years, sometimes even worse. It was good to just be out of that (round) for a bit and come home with a medal. I wanted to surpass my past results,' the 24-year-old told The Straits Times. The two-time Olympian had reached the round of 32 and round of 16 of the Asian championships in 2024 and 2023 respectively. She added: 'I wasn't really focused about putting that kind of stress (of winning a medal) on myself, but it was definitely a goal I had at the back of my mind.' Her coach Henry Koh, however, believes that she was being 'very modest' with her evaluation of her performance. Koh, 50, said: 'Kiria is very tough on herself. There were many moments in today's events that if she had made an additional mistake or given up or didn't give her best, she wouldn't be at the medal stage because there were very good fencers (all around).' His charge certainly proved that she belongs at this stage. After winning all five bouts in the opening pool stage, she secured a bye and moved to the round of 32. There she beat Kazakhstan's world No. 115 Sofiya Nikolaichuk 15-13, before overcoming world No. 145 Taniksha Khatri of India by the same score. At the quarter-final stage, Kiria came from behind to prevail 15-11 against Hong Kong's world No. 74 Chan Wai Ling. While she was unable to overcome the top-ranked Song in the semi-finals, Kiria improved on their previous meetings at the Fencing World Cup in March 2024 and May 2025. She had lost 15-7 on both occasions , but Koh felt that Kiria had 'made a breakthrough' after their last encounter. He said: 'I told her that there was a specific strategy we could work on and (today) we were saying if we meet her (Song) again, we know we can beat her.' Coach Henry Koh (left) believes Kiria Tikanah Abdul Rahman can fence against anyone in the world. PHOTO: BIZZITEAM Kiria went toe to toe with Song, keeping the score as close as 10-10 in their bout. But Song's experience shone through, as the 31-year-old clinched victory late on. 'I mean, we are talking about the No. 1 in the world here,' said Koh. 'But it was very close all the way to the end. I would say that (Kiria) really showed that she's world class. 'And you know, she's gone to two Olympics. People should recognise her for what she can do.' Adding that fencing is a 'very, very ruthless' sport, Koh stressed: 'She has proven that she can fence with anyone.' Song went on to clinch the gold with a 15-10 win over China's world No. 133 Yang Jingwen, who had beaten Kiria's teammate Elle Koh 15-14 in the round of 16. Kaylin Hsieh of Hong Kong took the other bronze medal . Kiria's joint-bronze is Singapore's second medal at the meet, after Juliet Heng won a silver in the women's individual sabre on June 18. The team events will kick off on June 20, with Singapore's fencers competing in the men's sabre and women's foil categories.

Meta to work with Singapore banks in sharing intelligence to combat scams
Social media company Meta is aiming to roll out a shared intelligence platform with local banks in Singapore to combat the scam scourge. This comes as it looks to form a closer partnership with the Republic's law enforcement agencies to dismantle scam syndicates. First unveiled in the United Kingdom and Australia in 2024, Meta's Fraud Intelligence Reciprocal Exchange (Fire) is a platform that allows banks to share threat intelligence with the firm directly. Speaking to the media on June 12, Meta's Singapore and Asean head of public policy Clara Koh said the firm is ready to roll out the programme globally through an industry consortium - the Financial Services Information Sharing and Analysis Centre. She said that currently, Meta's customers who become victims of scams on its platforms have to report their experience to the firm. With Fire, Meta - the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp - will also be able to receive intelligence on scammers or victims from banks. Ms Koh said the platform allows Meta to analyse data and remove the scammers' ability to commit crimes. "But at the same time, we use the signals and patterns or behaviours of the actors to help our machine learning and artificial intelligence actually better detect the bad actors. "So yes, we are working with a few local banks to try and get them onboarded into the programme," she added. She said more details will be shared at a later date. During a six-month pilot with UK banks NatWest and Metro Bank, Meta was able to remove some 20,000 accounts run by scammers from 185 website addresses shared by the banks. Ms Koh was one of the panellists at an anti-scam awareness event organised by Meta on June 12 at the firm's office at Marina One. The panel also included the Singapore Police Force's Superintendent Rosie Ann McIntyre, who is assistant director of the Scam Public Education Office's operations department, and the National Crime Prevention Council's Mr Nicholas Khoo.

ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI During the discussion, Supt McIntyre said that people should not be fearful if an unknown person is attempting to call or reach them through e-mail. Instead, it is important to slow down and assess the situation. "The important thing is not to respond immediately, not to transfer money, because once it's out, it's out. The important thing is not to click a link," said Supt McIntyre. In 2024, victims in Singapore lost a record high $1.1 billion to scams. In total, victims here have lost more than $3.4 billion to scams since 2019. The most common ruse in 2024 was e-commerce scams, which include concert ticket scams, with 11,665 reported cases and victims losing at least $17.5 million in total. Job scams and phishing scams rounded out the top three scam variants of concern in 2024. Some $156.2 million was lost to job scams, while victims of phishing scams lost $59.4 million across 2024. Ms Koh said that some scams - such as ticketing scams linked to big events like mega concerts or summits - can be anticipated, which means the authorities can prepare against a spike in fraud attempts ahead of time. During a six-month pilot with UK banks NatWest and Metro Bank, Meta was able to remove some 20,000 accounts run by scammers from 185 website addresses shared by the banks. ST PHOTO: LIM YAOHUI But others are difficult to predict. Most scams, like love scams or impersonation scams, are evergreen, which make it challenging to get ahead of, Ms Koh said. "You don't know how (scams) are going to evolve over time, but they evolve extremely quickly within days. Once you try and arrest a particular variant, it pivots and evolves into something else," she added. She said Meta is also committed to fighting the scam scourge beyond just its online platforms - highlighting the human trafficking cost that comes with scam compounds run by organised crime. "As a platform, we want to do our best to tackle the issue as it manifests... but I think equally, we also want to take real-world action on the actual criminal syndicates that are operating these (compounds)," she said. "So we can do our part but, at the same time, we really need different segments of the ecosystem and society to work with us on the same side to really fight this scourge."
