Nusa Dua (Antara Bali) - Vice President Boediono has urged Indonesians to keep an eye out for narcotics syndicates and terrorist groups, which have joined hands.
"One pressing problem that we all need to be on alert for is the expansion of the cooperation between narcotics syndicates and several terrorist groups," he said in Nusa Dua, Bali, on Tuesday.
Boediono made the statement at the opening of the 26th International Drug Enforcement Conference, which was attended by Minister of Justice and Human Rights Amir Syamsudin, Governor of Bali I Made Mangku Pastika, head of the National Narcotics Bureau Goris Mere, and 305 participants from 75 countries.
The vice president said several cases were found during narcotics eradication operations, which pointed to the nexus between terrorism and organized crime.
One such case came to the fore during a combined operation of several countries, including Indonesia, China, the United States, and Hong Kong on May 25, 2012.(IGT/T007)
