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.
