The three case studies chosen for analysis of their origin and development, ideology and strategy are Al-Jama‘ah Al-Islamiyyah (JI), Majelis Mujahidin Indonesia (MMI) and Jama’ah Ansharut Tauhid (JAT). After determining the existential threat, the study then proceeds to understand the post-Suharto government’s weak response to them. What could be the reasons for the state’s indecisiveness to securitise them? Why is it difficult for the state to convince the Indonesian population in general, and more specifically, religious leaders in Nahdlatul Ulama (NU) and Muhammadiyah as well as public intellectuals that these Islamists are an existential threat to the unitary Pancasila state? This study argues that the absence of a consensus between the securitisers and the relevant audience, the Indonesian population, on the existential threat posed by them is the reason for the post-Suharto Indonesian state finding it difficult to securitise them. To obtain first-hand information, I conducted interviews, talked, and discussed with people from among the securitisers and relevant audience. By employing qualitative analysis of the primary and related documents, this study evaluates the intentions and capabilities of the chosen case studies. After that, an assessment was also made on the post-Suharto government’s securitisation of them. vii This study concludes that non-integrative and pro-jihad Islamists are an existential threat to the NKRI. To securitise them the government must secure the mandate of the general Indonesian public by allocating more resources to convince them and develop a consensus on the existential threat posed by the non-integrative and pro-jihad Islamists. Since Indonesia is becoming a stronger “negara hukum” (a state that implements its government based on the rule of law) because of the establishment of democracy, the government must find the right balance of actions to act against the non-integrative and pro-jihad Islamists. A preventive law like the Internal Security Act of Singapore or the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (SOSMA) which Malaysia is currently implementing might not be the solution in the short term. Implementation of such measures would only be possible if the government is successful in convincing the general Indonesian population as the relevant audience of the existential threat. In this regard, the politically aware public and the leadership of the largest Muslim organisations (NU and Muhammadiyah) must agree that non-integrative and pro-jihad Islamists and their organisations are indeed an existential threat. They must allow the government to formulate and implement policies necessary to contain the threat. viii CHAPTER ONE ESTABLISHING THE THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL PLATFORM FOR THIS STUDY “Security is taken to be about the pursuit of freedom from threat and the ability of states and societies to maintain their independent identity and their functional integrity against forces of change, which they see as hostile.

Rajaratnam School of International Studies Singapore The Islamic Caliphate's influence in Southeast Asia Rohan Gunaratna Introduction June 29, 2015 marks the first anniversary of the Islamic Caliphate (IS). As it seeks to expand its core area of Iraq and Syria, enlists support groups and individuals, and create provinces worldwide, the rise of IS presents a global threat. Despite military, diplomatic, political, economic, and other efforts by the International Community to target IS, the group has expanded operationally in theatre and its influence worldwide. As IS eclipse al Qaeda as the dominant global threat, the world faces a hybrid threat from two networks of terrorists and extremists: Al Qaeda and IS. In Asia too, both these networks present a formidable challenge. In Southeast Asia, governments are still coming to terms with IS and its affiliated groups in the region. The Context The AQ-centric global threat landscape is eclipsed by an IS-AQ hybrid threat. The threat groups worldwide have either pledged allegiance to IS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi or expressed support to IS. Both in the physical and virtual space, IS footprint is expanding. With Asian foreign fighters traveling to Syria and Iraq, IS presents a growing threat to the stability and security of Asia.

International terrorist organizations are showing flexibility in their tactical choices, as they adapt to counter-terrorism actions, form sleeper cells, and actively use modern technology to recruit supporters and carry out attacks. The activities of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), Al-Qaida, Katibat al Tawhid wal-Jihad and the terrorist alliance Levant Liberation Organization pose the greatest threat at present. The terrorist organization ISIL is moving away from the image of a quasi-state to shape the image of a global-scale international terrorist organization with a number of affiliates in different regions of the world.

Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. W TheW threat of the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) has reverberated in Southeast Asia, from where individuals, including young women and individuals with families, have travelled to conflict zones in Syria and Iraq. The seriousness of the threat of ISIS however, comes from Southeast Asian fighters who will return home from battle with fresh combat skills, radical ideologies and extensive networks. The potential for these Southeast Asian terrorist returnees to mount attacks and to further radicalise and recruit other individuals, is therefore, of notable concern to governments in this region. In this issue, Anton Chan discusses the medium and the message used by ISIS that has appealed to its legions of supporters in Southeast Asia.

This recognition is because Indonesia has hinted more progress and improvement in democracy and human rights than other Muslim countries such as Turkey, Egypt and Pakistan. Freedom of press, the implementation of fair general elections, the distribution of power among the state institutions (trias politica) and some many others are main indicators depicting the rapid democratisation of Indonesia.
