The Beat<\/strong><\/p>\n

Transparency International criticises UK<\/em><\/p>\n

Transparency International\u2019s latest report Don\u2019t Look, Won\u2019t Find: weaknesses in the supervising of the UK\u2019s anti-money laundering rules<\/em><\/a> calls for a radical overall of the UK\u2019s anti-money laundering mechanisms, questioning the system\u2019s oversight, lack of transparency, ineffective sanctions and independence.<\/p>\n

Receiving the lion\u2019s share of the criticism are the 22 supervisory bodies within the UK which oversee industries where the most cash is laundered; only one of which appears to enforce the rules over the levels of \u2018low\u2019 or \u2018unreported\u2019<\/a>. The report also found considerable conflicts of interest, in that 15 of these 22 bodies also lobby for the companies they oversee<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Paw enforcement<\/em><\/p>\n

In a gesture of solidarity, Russia has offered France a German shepherd puppy<\/a> named Dobrynya following the death of Diesel in last week\u2019s terror raid<\/a> in Paris. Dr Binoy Kampmark articulates the overwhelming sentiment behind Diesel\u2019s passing<\/a> among the many human lives recently lost as part of the terror attacks.<\/p>\n

Counterterrorism post-Paris<\/em><\/p>\n

As the world recovers from 13\/11 Paris attacks<\/a>, Leah Farrall from the United States Studies Centre discusses the future of counterterrorism in the wake of the attacks in a new podcast<\/a>. Farrall looks at how countries can better allocate CT resources post-Paris and stresses the need for a more strategic, rather than reactive, approach to counterterrorism. Meanwhile, Malcolm Turnbull has made his first national security statement as Prime Minister, declaring daesh<\/em> \u2018weak\u2019 and outlining Australia\u2019s new terrorism-alert system<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Malaysia and the US: CT partners?<\/em><\/p>\n

A new feature article by Prashanth Parameswaran on The Diplomat<\/em> explores the blossoming partnership between the US and Malaysia, united in the fight against daesh<\/em>. The article takes a look at the countries\u2019 joint interests and the ways in which KL and Washington are cooperating\u2014check it out here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile in Brussels\u2014cats fight terror<\/em><\/p>\n

On Sunday evening Brussels went into lockdown as authorities launched counterterrorism raids<\/a> across the city in a bid to track down those involved in the Paris attacks. As authorities requested people refrain from posting information that might expose or compromise police operations<\/a>, Belgians opted to post pictures of cats on social media to cut the tension. Check out some of the best #cat tweets<\/a> here, or view all the #BrusselsLockdown<\/a> tweets here.<\/p>\n

Syria on speed<\/em><\/p>\n

The war in Syria is fuelling the rise in popularity of a dangerous, new super-amphetamine called Catpagon across the Middle East. This Foreign Policy<\/em> piece<\/a> explains that the effects<\/a> of the drug, to make users feel \u2018invincible\u2019<\/a>,\u00a0have increased its demand among those on the battlefield. Captagon use has been linked to ISIS fighters as various reports<\/a> indicate they use the drug when they carry out their attacks. Check this Forbes<\/em> piece<\/a> to know more about the drug.<\/p>\n

US travellers warned<\/em><\/p>\n

In the wake of the Paris attacks, the US State Department has issued a worldwide travel alert<\/a>, warning international travellers with US passports of increasing terrorist threats. Although issuing global travel alerts are rare, the US has done so four times over the last four years<\/a>. With last week seeing a<\/a>n average of nearly one incident per day involving a \u2018suspicious flyer\u2019 in the US<\/a>, domestic travellers have also been urged by the State Department to exercise vigilance when in public places or using transportation.<\/p>\n

Suicide bombers detection technology<\/em><\/p>\n

As the EU calls for full use of available technology to counter terrorism inside the Schengen area<\/a>,\u00a0Israeli Homeland Security may have the answer to catch a terrorist who is carrying an explosive vest<\/a>.\u00a0The CounterBomber, a system that can automatically detect suicide vests and other person-borne threats at a distance. Using video-steered radar sensor technology and video cameras, the scanner automatically tracks and assess subjects while wirelessly transmitting pictures to a remote handheld device.
