Abstract
The recent release of several Jemaah Islamiyah (JI) members shows that the efforts of the Singapore government and the local Muslim community in de-radicalising terrorists are bearing fruit. Yet, this was overshadowed by the arrests of two young Muslim Singaporeans who have self-radicalised through the influence of the Internet. This shows the need for more preventive measures.
