Jakarta (VNA) - Police in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) will establish an integrated database to tackle terrorism, a senior Indonesian police officer said on September 14.
According to head of the Crime Unit of Indonesian National Police Senior Commissioner Ari Dono Sukmanto, ASEAN member nations agreed to set up the electronic Aseanapol database system (e-ADS) to support the fight against terrorists and transnational crimes.
