Indonesian intelligence confirms US terrorist warning
Indonesia's intelligence chief has confirmed U-S government warnings that American interests in the Southeast Asian country face possible terrorist attacks.
A.M. Hendropriyono says greater democracy in Indonesia has made it more vulnerable to international terrorism.
But the former army chief has declined to give details about specific threats.
Earlier this month, the U-S urged Americans to defer non-essential travel to Indonesia and stay away from outlying provinces where separatist and religious fighting has flared.
The U-S State Department says it has received information that extremists might attack American interests in Indonesia.
Britain and Australia have also warned its citizens to take extra care in Indonesia.
