Hezbollah and Al Qaeda networks in South East Asia are also the same NGO infrasturcture to advance their aims and objectives. Legitimate international Islamic organizations including charities funded by respectable governments were penetrated and exploited by Al Qaeda and Hezbollah to advance their objectives. Abdul Nasser Novoh, based in Maikati City , Manila faciliated Al Qaeda and Hezbollah operations. He worked with the Phillipines based Muslim World League (MWL) , International Islamic Relief Organization (IRAQ), Darul Hirja Foundation (HC) , International Islamic Conference (IIC) and other international Islamic organizations. Through him both Al Qaeda and Hezbollah infiltrated unwitting domestic Islamic non – governmental organizational organizations such as the Islamic Dawah Council of the Phillpines (IDCP) whose purpose was to propogate Islamic principles and knowledge.
