Summary of counter-terrorism proposals for Jakarta

Indonesia, and Jakarta in particular, has suffered from a string of terror bombings over the past two years. The United States and Indonesia are committed to assisting each other in this fight. We will be undertaking a long-term security and counterterrorism program with Indonesia valued at a little over $50 million. Of this amount, about $47 million will be spent upgrading police capability and about $4 million on military training.

2. Additional capacity-building for the police, including establishment of a special police counterterrorism unit: Up to $16 million in FY 02 (from the emergency supplemental FY 02 budget.)

3. Technical assistance for combating terrorist financing and improving Indonesia's anti-money laundering regime: Valuation pending assessment

4. Enrollment in the Terrorist Interdiction Program, which provides technical assistance to help secure borders: Valuation pending assessment

5. Regional counterterrorism fellowships to provide training on counterterrorism and related issues to the Indonesian military: $4 million in FY 02-03 (from Section 8125 of the 2002 Defense Appropriations Act)

6. International Military Education and Training for Indonesian military: $400,000 in FY 03, if approved by Congress (in addition to $400,000 in FY 02 being spent to train civilians)
