Indeed, just last November, a member of the Philippines’ Congress, Wahab Akbar, a Muslim representing Basilan, was killed with five others in front of the House of Representatives by an improvised explosive device of the type used in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Iraq. His death should serve as a warning to all Southeast Asian governments: we must fight Al Qaeda together, or we shall lose to them separately.
确实，就在去年11月，代表巴西兰岛的菲律宾议会穆斯林议员阿巴尔和其他五人在众议院门前被炸身亡。这一拼装的爆炸装置与在巴基斯坦、阿富汗和伊拉克使用的是同一种类。他的遇刺身亡对于所有东南亚政府都是一个警告，那就是，我们必须共同打击基地组织，否则我们就会被他们各个击破。
