Flaws in global efforts to counter money laundering<\/em><\/p>\n

A\u00a0new report on the consultation between Britain\u2019s National Crime Agency and businesses<\/a>\u00a0was released this week, which informed the NCA\u2019s recent national risk assessment of money laundering and terrorist financing<\/a>. Closer to home, Australian private industry is also reacting to scrutiny by Austrac, the financial intelligence unit. In this case, gambling corporation Tabcorp has appointed a new \u2018chief risk officer\u2019<\/a> to ensure its compliance with regulations as it handles 875 million bets per year. Countering financial crime is a major issue\u2014one we\u2019ll covering in more depth in 2016. We think the focus comes at an important time.<\/p>\n

Scots weigh in on strategic policing priorities<\/em><\/p>\n

The Scottish police force have launched their biggest ever initiative<\/a> to encourage the public to weigh in on discussions about the future of strategic policing in Scotland. The Police Scotland are encouraging the public to submit their ideas<\/a> on what law enforcement priorities should be, and what the public would like to see from their local police force.<\/p>\n

Daesh vs China<\/em><\/p>\n

In a rare move, Daesh has released a new Chinese-language propaganda<\/a> video. The Mandarin Chinese audio comes in the form of a song encouraging Muslims<\/a> to rebel, with the same video released in English, Russian, French and Turkish. China mightn\u2019t be as high on Daesh\u2019s target list as the US or Russia, but the group executed a Chinese citizen<\/a> last month alongside a Norwegian. If you want to learn more about China\u2019s Muslim minorities, a new piece at VICE News<\/a> gives a fascinating account of ethnic and religious tensions on the ground in China\u2019s Xinjiang province.<\/p>\n

Malaysia\u2013Australia CT cooperation<\/em><\/p>\n

Malaysia has offered to send<\/a> counterterrorism experts from the Royal Malaysian Police, the Prisons Department, the Islamic Development Department and academia to Australia in 2016 to share both countries\u2019 experiences. Active in seeking regional counterterrorism cooperation, Malaysia will be hosting a new deradicalisation conference<\/a> in January with ASEAN members and dialogue partners including Australia, China, the US and Russia. Malaysian officials claim to have arrested more than 100 citizens<\/a> with suspected links to Daesh, and as many as 39 Malaysian citizens are fighting with the terror group in Iraq and Syria.<\/p>\n

Turkey\u2019s Syrian border security in numbers<\/em><\/p>\n

As the US urges Turkey to do more<\/a> to control the border with Syria, the Turkish Armed Forces (TSK) captured 909 foreign fighters from 54 different countries this year thanks to ramped up border security efforts, the Daily Sabah <\/em>reported<\/a>. TSK efforts included the construction of a 23km long concrete wall, a 108km long fence, 386kms of ditches, an 80km long embankment and 423kms of electricity provided where illegal trespassing could occur\u2014for the cost of USD$102.77 million.<\/p>\n

Cross border tool-bridges instead of walls<\/em><\/p>\n

As of yesterday, travellers can now walk on a purple pedestrian bridge between two terminals that link Tijuana International Airport and San Diego over the US\u2013Mexico border, the LA Times<\/em> reported<\/a>. The Cross Border Xpress<\/a> is the first project to join a site in the US with a foreign airport terminal. The bridge will be open 24\/7 for airline ticketed passengers, who can take the five-minute walk across the border for only US$18. Located 22 miles from downtown San Diego, the Tijuana airport is the second most-connected airport in Mexico, with flights to more than 30 Mexican destinations.<\/p>\n

A new resilience and adaptation strategy for Australia<\/em><\/p>\n

Last week, the Australian Government announced<\/a> its 2015 National Climate Resilience and Adaptation Strategy. The document<\/a> highlights the need for a dualistic approach: taking steps to mitigate climate change where possible and simultaneously ensuring we adapt to changes already in motion. It addresses resilience initiatives across a variety of sectors, including coastlines, water resources, disaster risk management and urban environments.<\/p>\n

Insuring the future<\/em><\/p>\n

The Insurance Council of Australia welcomed<\/a> the new strategy\u2019s acknowledgement of the vital role the insurance industry plays in disaster risk management. This role is also explored in the UN Environment Programme\u2019s (UNEP) Principles for Sustainable Insurance (PSI) Global Resilience Project<\/a>. The project\u2019s final report, \u2018Collaborating for resilience<\/a>\u2019 (PDF) was released last week.<\/p>\n

Resilience in Paris<\/em><\/p>\n

The third day of the UN climate change talks<\/a> in Paris was deemed \u2018Resilience Day<\/a>\u2019. Led by the governments of France and Peru, the UN meetings announced major international partnerships, policies and finance packages to address the growing threat of climate impacts. The Peruvian environment minister emphasised<\/a> the importance of resilience and moving away from carbon-based economies to continued growth and productivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
