On this anniversary of terrorist attacks on the United States in
September 2001, we remember that such attacks have occurred
in many other places throughout the world, before and after the
New York and Washington attacks (for example, the Tokyo
subway; London; Madrid; Bali, Indonesia; Ahmedabad, India;
several attacks in Russia, many incidents in various countries in
the Middle East). There are few countries which have not had
experience with sabotage or terrorist attack. The hazardous
nature of the materials handled in the process industries requires
everyone’s vigilance to ensure that our plants are secure, to
protect ourselves, our fellow employees, and our neighbors.
