The objective of the paper is to examine the relationship between the September 11 event and the political situation and the socio-politico Islamic movement in the Southeast Asian countries. What different between the majority and minority Muslim population countries in Southeast Asia?

This paper hopes could analyse the relationship between the September 11 event 2001and the socio-politico Islamic development changes in Southeast Asia; the differences between the majority of Muslim population countries and the minority Muslim population countries. Malaysia and Indonesia are the two countries that the majority population are the Muslim, otherwise, Thailand and the Philippines are not; Thailand is Buddhist and the Philippines is Christian Catholic countries.
