                    [Summary] => The  Canadian Embassy in Makati City closed last week due to a "credible" threat from the Indonesia-based Islamist group Jemaah Islamiyah (JI), the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) said yesterday.


"(We) had dinner with officials of the Canadian Embassy on the night before the closure… They told us they would be closing the embassy after receiving a specific report that they were being targeted by the JI," NBI Director Reynaldo Wycoco said.


Wycoco told reporters he was assured that the embassy would reopen once the threat had passed.
