KUALA LUMPUR: As the United States marks the 20th anniversary of 9/11, the most devastating terrorist attack on its soil, a Malaysian police chief who was then with the anti-terrorism unit says that intelligence-sharing among international agencies can be further improved and speeded up.

The Bukit Aman Special Branch Department, especially its Counter-Terrorism Unit, has been instrumental in combating terrorism, both locally and regionally.
