The terror threat in Malaysia has reached a new level – the link between foreign and local fighters via social media has led to greater funding for terrorism activities.

Tomorrow, prime minister Najib Razak is expected to table a White Paper in the Parliament, which will detail the “real threat” that terrorist groups like Islamic State (IS) and others in the region present to Malaysia.
Home minister Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the White Paper would touch on proposed measures to combat and prevent terrorism.
“The threat is real and we hope this (White Paper) will create more awareness on both sides of the political divide and Malaysians as a whole.
