ABC 9/10/01 11:12:23 Security tight at US embassy in Jakarta Indonesian security forces have positioned armoured vehicles and troops close to the US embassy in Jakarta after hardline muslims threatened to stage demonstrations. Mark Bowling reports one radical religious group has warned the government to cut diplomatic ties with Washington or it will attack US facilities and American citizens and their allies. Indonesian authorities have deployed water cannon, armoured vehicles and hundreds of armed police to guard diplomats and other foreigners ... as one hardline group, the Islamic Defenders Front threatened attacks in retaliation for US-led air strikes on Afghanistan. The Front is one of many radical groups to react with anger to the strikes. But expected largescale demonstrations have not gone ahead. The Australian embassy in Jakarta has advised an estimated 8,000 Australians living in Indonesia to stay at home, and for Australians wanting to visit Indonesia, to defer their travel plans. That advice does not apply to Bali where conditions are considered safe. 9/10/01 11:12:23 © 2001 Australian Broadcasting Corporation Copyright © 1999-2001  - Ambon Berdarah On-Line * http://www.go.to/ambon HTML pages designed and maintained by Alifuru67 * http://www.oocities.org/baguala67 Send your comments to alifuru67@egroups.com
