Simon Milner, vice president of Public Policy, Asia Pacific at Facebook, said the social networking platform is committed to reducing the “spread of misinformation in Singapore and elsewhere”.“We recently rolled out third-party fact checking in Singapore, which complements our work to disrupt coordinated inauthentic behavior and to create more transparency for political ads,” he said.
