For over a decade the British and Indonesian governments have worked together to tackle the threat posed by international terrorist groups. Last month’s attack on three churches in Surabaya underlined the importance of this cooperation. We have had a Counter Terrorism capacity-building programme in Indonesia since the 2002 terrorist attack in Bali. Our support includes teaching a broad range of counter terrorism investigation skills. This support helps the Indonesian authorities defend against all terrorist threats.
