Dr Harrison, manager of research at NTU's International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research, said whatever morale boost the JI gained from the escape has now been erased.
'Secondly, what it does show is that there is a tremendous regional cooperation against JI and that as long as that continues the JI will not be able to successfully re-establish itself as the organisation that it once was.'
Dr Harrison praised Singapore and Malaysian authorities for their cooperation and said they had kept the news under wraps to get more intelligence away from the media glare.
This guy sure know who is his master, give him a bone.
If it is really a 100% joint effort, how come 6 weeks after the arrest, then the news is release? somemore at midnight?
It is true that news should be kept under wraps before the arrest, but kept for 6 weeks after the arrest?
And this guy is a "Manager of research at NTU's International Centre for Political Violence and Terrorism Research"???
