In March 2025, a 17 year old Singaporean of Chinese descent known as an East Asian Supremacist was arrested for plotting to attack 5 mosques in Singapore after someone discovered his manifesto online. According to the authorities, the teen believed that East Asians are superior than Muslims, Africans and Latinos. He saw videos of the Christchurch mosque attacks and took inspiration from Brenton Tarrant the Australian Anti-Muslim terrorist from New Zealand. He was proud of Tarrant and called him a "hero". He planned to livestream the attacks like what Tarrant did. He wanted to use guns for the attacks and knew that it will be impossible to get guns in Singapore due to strict gun laws so he planned to smuggle guns into Singapore either from Malaysia or Thailand. The mosques that he planned to attack are located at Jurong West, Clementi, Margaret Drive, Admiralty Road and Beach Road. His goal was to kill 100 Muslims before taking his own life. It was reported that he had been in contact online with Nick Lee Xing Qiu another teen who was also arrested for plotting to attack mosques in Singapore 3 months prior. The 17 year old has been send for counselling and rehabilitation.
