Bombing underlines need for constant vigilance
National Party Leader Don Brash has described the car-bomb blast outside the Australian embassy in Jakarta as an 'outrage'.
"It serves as a warning to us all about how much the world has changed since September 11.
"Coming so soon after the Russian school siege, it shows we live in a deeply troubled world. And it further underlines the need for constant vigilance.
"Our thoughts and our best wishes go out to those Indonesians and Australians touched by this tragedy," Dr Brash says.
