Financial Action Task Force report<\/em><\/p>\n

The latest report<\/a> of the Financial Action Task Force<\/a> on Australia\u2019s compliance with anti-money laundering measures rated our legislation, systems and financial intelligence highly.\u00a0The report, out every five years, found that Australia remains non-compliant in a couple of important areas, including \u2018designated non-financial businesses and professions\u2019, like accountants and lawyers and supervision of the non-profit sector.<\/p>\n

BASCAP report<\/em><\/p>\n

The International Chamber of Commerce\u2019s Business Action to Stop Counterfeiting and Piracy Initiative<\/a> have published a report, Roles and Responsibilities of Intermediaries: Fighting Counterfeiting and Piracy in the Supply Chain<\/a>, that looks at steps to keep counterfeit goods out of the supply chain and off the internet.\u00a0Director Jeff Hardy commented that \u201cmost intermediaries, when better informed about potential exploitation and the damage done by counterfeiting and piracy, demonstrate a willingness to secure their portion of the supply chain from abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Signing off on another Beat<\/em><\/p>\n

After 40 years in the police service, Senior Constable Neale McShane is retiring from his beat of Birdsville<\/a>. For the past decade, he has patrolled a 240,000 square kilometre patch over Queensland, South Australia and the Northern Territory\u2014a jurisdiction the size of the United Kingdom.\u00a0SC McShane attributes his success to a knowledge of the land and engagement with the locals, including Aboriginal elder and ranger Don Rowlands.<\/p>\n

Perth\u2019s Islamic State doctor: nothing new here<\/em><\/p>\n

Perth doctor Tareq Kamleh\u2019s appearance in Islamic State\u2019s latest propaganda video<\/a> made waves this week. But terrorism experts Clarke Jones and Greg Barton say<\/a> Kamleh\u2019s case is just \u2018same old\u2019; recruiters tapped into his feelings of \u2018guilt and failure\u2019 in swaying him from a partying lifestyle to extremism. On The Interpreter<\/em>, Roger Shanahan pokes holes<\/a> in the video\u2019s portrayal of a modern medical facility.<\/p>\n

Does terrorism actually work?<\/em><\/p>\n

Terrorism is successful in stirring fear, but is it effective in achieving political goals? Max Abrahms argues<\/a> that the ‘indiscriminate violence’ of terrorist groups often leads to government crackdowns, which in turn undermines the group\u2019s political legitimacy. Listen to his podcast<\/a> at Blogs of War<\/em> (37 mins).<\/p>\n

New Perspectives<\/em><\/p>\n

The latest dishing of Perspectives on Terrorism is out<\/a>. Notable gems include a study of Dutch jihadists that questions the consensus that jihadists are \u2018surprisingly normal\u2019. Instead, the research concludes that there\u2019s a high rate of behavioural problems among radical Islamists. See also Scott Atran\u2019s handy guide<\/a> to what social science says about countering violent extremism tactics.<\/p>\n

Checkpoint<\/strong><\/p>\n

Welcome to ASPI\u2019s newest update Checkpoint<\/em>. Checkpoint<\/em> \u2018will inspect and patrol\u2019 Australian and international borders to provide you with the latest border security developments and commentary.<\/p>\n

Drug trafficking in the Indian Ocean<\/em><\/p>\n

During the 13th United Nations Congress on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice<\/a> recently held in Qatar, UNODC Executive Director Yury Fedotov stressed<\/a> that the Indian Ocean could become a haven for criminal activity. Innovative concealment methods and vessels with multiple drop-off points have boosted the flow of heroin between the East Coast of Africa and South Asia.<\/p>\n

Asylum seekers crossing the Mediterranean<\/em><\/p>\n

According to The New York Times,<\/em> the civil war in Libya<\/a> has turned the country into, among other things, a transit hub that people-smugglers are using to launch boats destined for Europe. The increasing journeys attempted has also led to a greater number of casualties. In April over 1,000 migrants have drowned, while 11,000 people were rescued.<\/p>\n

How powerful is your passport?<\/em><\/p>\n

Using data from the International Air Transportation Agency, Arton Capital<\/a> has created a Passport Index<\/a> based on the number of countries it allows its holder to enter without a visa. The higher the Visa-Free score, the higher the Passport Rank. Australian passports\u2014which enjoy visa-free access to 138 nations\u2014secured a place in the top ten, while America and Britain topped the list with access to 147 countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
