Guan Eng queries basis of US report alleging Malaysia still a terrorist source, transit point thesundaily Malaysia LimGuanEng terrosim USA theSun
The police have an obligation to explain how the US government came to the conclusion that Malaysia “continues to be a source and transit point for Muslim terror groups”, said DAP secretary-general Lim Guan EngIn its report on terrorism last year, the US said these terror organisations included the Islamic State , Abu Sayyaf Group , al-Qaeda and Jemaah Islamiyah .
“The report noted Malaysia’s efforts in combating terrorism through legal prosecution, border patrols and social media monitoring. Four terrorism-related incidents were listed but it was noted that there were no IS-related attacks on Malaysian soil last year,” he said. He said public concerns “will only mount” over recent police action against the defunct Sri Lankan separatist group when compared with active terrorist cells belonging to IS, ASG, al-Qaeda and JI.
Lim said former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak had also spread “a new lie” by saying Lim had threatened not to pay the salaries of civil servants who do not vote for the PH candidate in the by-election.
