UK to help RI in border control

JAKARTA: The directorate general of immigration closed on
Thursday a two-day workshop to boost the performance of its newly
established directorate of intelligence and border control.

Facilitated by the International Organization for Migration
(IOM), the workshop was attended by participants from the marine
intelligence, the police intelligence and the National
Intelligence Agency (BIN).

The directorate of intelligence and border control was
established on June 8 as part of the government's measures to
improve control at the country's entry points. The British
government has pledged to provide information technology devices
and document forgery detection equipment. -- JP
