The terrorism threat isn't over: Senior Minister
Professor S Jayakumar
Senior Minister S Jayakumar said, the fight against terrorism
must still continue even with the death of wanted terrorist Noordin
Mohammed Top.
The fugitive was killed in a police raid in Indonesia last
month.
Speaking at the National Security seminar this morning, Professor
Jayakumar noted that Jemaah Islamiah network remains active,
continuing to receive support and new members.
He added that the world is dealing with a real and persistent
threat with no end in sight.
Professor Jayakumar, who's also the Coordinating Minister for
National Security said that terrorists are constantly adapting and
seeking new ways to overcome the latest security
measures.
But he added that even the best of measures cannot provide
iron-clad protection.
The price that the country must bear is eternal vigilance and
alertness against complacency, said Professor Jayakumar.
