Southeast Asian states have adopted new tactics in the war on terror. Indonesia and Philippines realised that winning this battle would require soft as well as hard power. There have been signs of progress such as the capture of Jemaah Islamiyah's top leaders, Abu Dujana and Zarkasih; and the killing of Abu Sayyaf leader, Khadafy Janjalani. However, neither Indonesia or the Philippines have fully eliminated their terrorist threats. Terrorism still remains a threat to this region.
