Hackers attack Philippine government website

[Juha-Matti Laurio <juha-matti.laurio () netti fi>]

"The Philippines on Sunday ordered all government offices to tighten Internet security after its main
information website was brought down by hackers.

"We are alerting all government agencies to review and improve security of their websites in view
of the hacking of the website this afternoon," presidential spokesman Herminio Coloma said.

...

Coloma did not say whether the hacker attack was related to widespread public anger in Hong Kong
over police bungling of a hostage crisis that left eight tourists dead on Monday."
