International SOS appoints Eastwest Public Relations in Singapore and Asia-Pacific
Eastwest will lead regional media relations and press office support, working alongside International SOS’s global communications team
Eastwest Public Relations today announced that it has been appointed by International SOS, the leading global security and health risk services company, to support its strategic communications in Singapore and Asia-Pacific. The appointment took effect on 1 October 2026 after a competitive pitch.
Eastwest PR will provide strategic counsel, media relations and press office support across the region. The agency will work alongside International SOS’s regional and global communications teams to bring the company’s expertise in security, workforce health, and resilience to business, trade and mainstream media.
Asia-Pacific holds a particular significance in International SOS’s history. The company was founded in Southeast Asia in 1985 and is today headquartered in London and Singapore. Organisations across the region continue to face a demanding mix of health, security and climate-related risks to their people, and the appointment reflects the importance International SOS places on informed public discussion of how employers meet their duty of care.
“The assumptions that once underpinned business as usual no longer hold. Geopolitical tension, economic uncertainty, and more frequent disruption now shape how organisations operate. Communication has become a strategic function against this backdrop — it determines how employees, clients and regulators judge an organisation’s readiness when events unfold,” said Raymond Lau, Partner, Eastwest PR. “International SOS sits at the centre of these issues, helping employers protect their people from security, health and wellbeing risks worldwide. We look forward to working with International SOS to raise the profile of their expertise in the region and that it reaches journalists and decision-makers who need it, accurately and at the right moment.”
Syazlina Haniff, Head of Marketing and Communications, Singapore, International SOS, said, “International SOS has served organisations in Asia-Pacific for over four decades, and the region remains central to our work. As employers contend with more complex risks to their people, from geopolitical instability to extreme weather and evolving health threats, clear and credible communication has become integral to how we support them – shaping how business leaders understand their duty of care and where they turn for guidance.”
