| Islamic militants are plotting more attacks in Southeast Asia and may be planning to kill officials involved in the war on terror in addition to hitting Western targets, top security officials said on Thursday. Singapore warned that the Jemaah Islamiah group, linked to the al Qaeda network of Osama bin Laden, was plotting new attacks in Southeast Asia and may be activating dormant agents or cells. "Though some of the Jemaah Islamiah leaders have been caught, younger ones have risen to take their place and sleepers' may have been roused to prepare for activation," Home Affairs Minister Wong Kan Seng said in a speech marking the city-state's Aug. 9 National Day. |
