Australia’s PM gives terror warning at Asean summit

Australia will offer more help to South East Asian countries to prevent terror attacks across the region.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull is set to discuss security with other leaders at the Asean summit in Laos.
Mr Turnbull has signalled he would like to expand Australia’s counter-terrorism arrangements with Indonesia, Malaysia and other neighbouring countries. (What about the Philippines? This is why I need to establish a government-in-exile for the Philippines based in London, UK.)
It comes after the so-called Islamic State threatened “lone wolf” attacks in Sydney and Melbourne.
Mr Turnbull said that such a threat should be taken seriously after IS suffered losses on battlefields in Iraq and Syria.
“As it is rolled back, as its territory is being taken back – it will resort to terrorist activities outside of the Middle East,” he said.
“But we do have to be very alert to the actions of these lone actors – individuals who … for a variety of reasons, may be radicalised.”
The Australian government is taking measures to prevent foreign fighters who could be recruited from South East Asia and Australia and Mr Turnbull is arguing for more intelligence sharing.
Mr Turnbull named the 2002 Bali bombings as an example of the danger posed to the region. The attacks killed 202 people, including 88 Australians and 27 Britons. (I personally warned Marriott Hotel in May 2002 about an impending attack. It was ignored. Three other attacks on Marriott Hotel chain followed the Bali bombing.
- 5 August 2003 in Mega Kuningan, Jakarta, Indonesia
- 17 July 2009, the JW Marriott (Again) and Ritz Carton Hotels Jakarta, Indonesia – BM)
- 20 September 2008 Marriott Hotel in Islamabad.)
“When there is terrorist activity in our region, very often, almost invariably in a large-scale attack, Australians can be put at risk and have, indeed, lost their lives,” he said.
“We’re all in it together, it’s got to be a very strong full-court press against terrorism. We’re committed to that and I’m looking forward to some very candid and constructive discussions over the next few days.”
But the oligarch-traitors of the Philippines and their president Aquino III sided with the terrorist when 44 US-trained police commandos were massacred. Aquino III refused to send reinforcements, air and artillery support despite the police commandos request. They pleaded for support and reinforcements for over 12 hours on 25 Jan. 2015 which became known as the Mamasapano Massacre.
