The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade issued the travel advisory, which said only that there were "recent indications" an attack may be in the advanced planning stages, and warned people to be vigilant at places of worship and during holiday periods. The department did not raise its overall warning level for Australians visiting the country.

The advice comes just days after Australia warned that terrorists may be plotting attacks in and around Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia's largest city.

In its warning for Indonesia, the department cited the Jan. 14 attacks in the capital, Jakarta, that left eight people dead, saying the assaults demonstrated an ongoing threat.

"We continue to receive information that indicates that terrorists may be planning attacks in Indonesia," the department wrote. "An attack could occur anywhere at any time."

The agency did not immediately to a request for more details.

In recent years, Indonesian counterterrorism forces successfully eradicated the extremist group Jemaah Islamiyah that was responsible for several attacks, including the 2002 bombings of bars in Bali which killed 202 people, as well as two hotel bombings in Jakarta in 2009 that killed seven people.

Indonesia's government has outlawed the ISIS group, but there are fears that militants who travel abroad will return home and carry out attacks in Indonesia. Indonesian authorities estimate that more than 600 Indonesians have joined the extremist group in Syria or Iraq.

Trump's Mock on Clinton, Clinton World: Criticism of Bill's High Demand on Wife's Campaign

Clinton World is scoffing at suggestions from Donald Trump and other Republicans. They said that Hillary Clinton is making a mistake in suggesting she’d give a major role in her White House on the issue of the economy to Bill Clinton. Trump has mocked the suggestion of putting the former president to work. “How can Crooked Hillary put her husband in charge of the economy when he was responsible for NAFTA, the worst economic deal in U.S. history?” the presumptive GOP presidential nominee tweeted on Tuesday. And former Speaker Newt Gingrich (R-Ga.) suggested that the promise of such a major role for Bill Clinton suggests he is effectively running for a third term. “The president of the United States has an actual job to create jobs, create wealth, create take home pay,” he said on Fox Business Network. “That’s Hillary’s job if she wants to be president.
