MEMORANDUM TO: OPINION LEADERS
FROM: ELLEN BORK, Deputy Director
SUBJECT: Shutting Down Terror-Financing in Southeast Asia
Despite Southeast Asia’s importance as a source of
terror-financing, not nearly enough has been done to shut down
funding channels there, Zachary Abuza argues in a piece (“Asia
Hasn’t Stopped the Terror Funding”) in today’s Asian Wall Street
Journal. Professor Abuza, the author of Militant Islam in
Southeast Asia: Crucible of Terror, criticizes the additions of
individual terrorists in jail or on the run to a UN blacklist as “futile
gestures.” Meanwhile, American “bureaucratic wrangling”
inspired by “fear of diplomatic fall-out,” resistance and denial
from Malaysia and Indonesia, the continued activities of Saudi
Arabian charities, and other failures allow funds to flow to
companies and charities that provide a network of support to
terrorists. While several Southeast Asian countries have recently
gotten good marks for their anti-terror efforts, Professor Abuza
suggests that where terror-financing is concerned that is not the
case.
