                    [Title] => GMA administration curbs terrorism, budget deficit in 2003
                    [Summary] => The Arroyo administration entered 2003 with the challenge to keep the budget deficit in control and curb terrorism in the country.


The year ended with a crippled Abu Sayyaf terror group and a major blow to Jema’ah Islamiyah, the Asian link of the al-Qaeda terror network, and possibly a budget deficit of slightly lower than the target of P202 billion.

Abu Sayyaf leader Ghalib Andang, widely known as ‘Commander Robot,’ who was responsible for the kidnapping of 21 hostages from a Malaysian resort was captured in Indanan, Sulu last Dec. 7.

Lasal, who escaped from Camp Crame together with Al-Ghozi but was captured four days before the Indonesian was killed, said MILF "lost command" groups tried to sell Al-Ghozi to the highest bidder. Lasal did not say with whom the "lost command" negotiated.

Getting out of their cell was easy because the lock was defective, Lasal told an interview with ABS-CBN television. He insisted several times that they did not get help from the police or anyone else.
