Possible terrorist attack in the ASEAN summit

There might be a possible terrorist attack in the ASEAN summit, but we are all hoping that such terrorist act will not occur. Al-Qaeda-linked militants will be a key security concern during the December 11-13 annual summit of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations in central Cebu province, prompting a massive security clampdown by more than 10,000 troops and police. Almost 5,000 security forces made up soldiers and policemen had been assigned to secure the sites where meetings would take place and to ensure the smooth flow of traffic. More than 600 marines were deployed Sunday to join a US-backed offensive against Abu Sayyaf and Jemaah Islamiyah leaders on southern Jolo island.
