Indonesia foreshadows tough anti-terror measures
The Indonesian Government is preparing to announce new anti-terrorist measures as police continue to sift through the rubble at the site of yesterday's hotel blast in Jakarta. Investigators have already established the explosion that killed at least 16 people and hurt almost 150 was the work of a suicide car-bomber. Indonesia's Coordinating Minister for Security Affairs Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono is expected to announce today a tough new Government security policy aimed at overcoming and preventing terrorism. He has asked Indonesians to be prepared to accept the sort of restrictions that could raise the concerns of human rights campaigners. He says preventing the deaths of more victims is worth more than the price of human rights.
