Report details training at Mindanao terrorist training camps
A SECRET government report says Muslim guerrillas in the southern Philippines have hosted terror training camps for militant groups from Indonesia and Malaysia for at least seven years - a period when Southeast Asia was plagued by bombings, including the 2002 Bali nightclub attack that killed 202. The training continued at least until 19 new members of Jemaah Islamiah - the al-Qaeda-linked south-east Asian terror group - finished in January, said a copy of a government security assessment report obtained by The Associated Press. The report provides deeper insight into the training of foreigners from Jemaah Islamiah and other extremist groups at the camps.
