Anti-spam laws in Singapore

Singapore's Spam Control Act will take effect June 15, as the city-state seeks to control unsolicited advertising, the government said on June 8. Under the Act, marketers based in Singapore convicted of spamming can be fined up to one million Singapore dollars (657,000 US), the Ministry of Information, Communication and the Arts said in a statement.
"The Act will offer a framework to better manage unsolicited commercial electronic messages sent in bulk, otherwise known as spam," the ministry said. "It aims to address the still-growing and global problem of spam," it said.
