An Australian policy paper on terrorism says the Muslim group Jemaah Islamiah still has the capacity to mount attacks anywhere in South East Asia. The White Paper says the group could hit soft targets, such as hotels and nightclubs, or hard targets like embassies and airports. It says the number of JI supporters is likely to grow because of the steady flow of extremists from radical religious schools. The Foreign Minister, Alexander Downer, says Australia is giving aid to Indonesia’s departments of education and religious affairs to try to control radical Muslim boarding schools. |
