“An online search on 5plus1.ru shows it to be linked to 5+1 Media, a Russian communications agency,” said Mr Ang and Ms Leong. “‘Alamak’ is a colloquial word used in Singapore and Malaysia, often used as an interjection or expression to describe shock, worry, dismay, and disappointment,” said Mr Ang and Ms Leong.
“This website also published commentaries on sociopolitical issues, including one that falsely alleged that Singapore had allowed other countries to conduct their biological warfare research activities here.” Although Alamak.io primarily features Singapore news, Mr Ang and Ms Leong were unable to identify any Singapore-based sources of ownership and funding.
