The Malaysian terrorist trio, were reportedly looking at a possible collaboration with two main, established, militant groups, namely, Abu Sayyaf and Jemaah Islamiah

**The Abu Sayyaf Group (ASG)** is known to be the most dangerous terrorist group in the Philippines, infamous for their constant kidnappings for ransom, assassinations, and bombings.

In 2000, ASG kidnapped 21 people from a resort in Pulau Sipadan, Sabah and demanded multiple ransoms in the form of millions of dollars and release of the terrorist behind in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, Ramzi Yousef.

Abu Sayyaf terrorists are also the ones that bombed the Superferry 14 in the Philippines in 2004, killing 116 people, thus making it Philippines' worst terrorist attack and the world's most lethal terrorist attack on sea to date.

**Jemaah Islamiah (JI),** on the other hand, is an Islamic terrorist group that operates from major South East Asian countries, including Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand.

These terrorists are responsible for the atrocious 2002 Bali bombings in Indonesia's popular tourist spot, Kuta, that killed 202 instantly and injured 209 more people.
