US issues terror alert for citizens in southern China

http://www.abc.net.au/ra/news/stories/s1506281.htm

The United States has issued an alert for citizens living in southern China after receiving "credible information" that a terrorist threat may exist against US government facilities in the city of Guangzhou.

A notice on the website of the US consulate in Hong Kong, says the threat "also may exist for places where Americans are known to congregate or visit, including clubs, restaurants, places of worship, schools or outdoor recreation events".

The message has been sent via e-mail to registered US citizens in the territory, and advises those in southern China to be aware of their surroundings and remain alert to possible threats.

A spokeswoman for the US consulate, Susan Stevenson, says there no more details about the threat available.

Last Wednesday, Chinese police warned that Islamic extremists could be planning attacks on luxury hotels in China this week, ahead of US President George W. Bush's three-day visit starting November 19.

Similar warnings were posted on the websites of US consulates in several Chinese cities but was quickly withdrawn after Beijing denied the threats.
