New Delhi: Branding terrorism as a "man-made" disaster, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today said the scourge was looming large over Asian countries and could trigger disasters across the borders.
"The threat of terror looms large in many parts of the region and could trigger disasters across regions," he said at the second Asian conference on disaster risk management here.
"The modern societies should also come together to prepare for man-made disasters like industrial disasters or those caused by terrorism attacks," he said.
