www.bernama.com.my - SEPANG, May 17 (Bernama) -- Malaysia can emulate Islamic bodies in
Indonesia in their creative development of endowment land despite
financial constraints.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Datuk Seri Jamil Khir
Baharom said they used endowment land for schools, universities and
hospitals.
"We agree to study how they are able to develop the economy and Muslims
in their spirit of volunteerism despite not being government agencies. (source)
"In fact, religious schools are also funded by Nahdlatul Ulama not in
the form of political parties but as an independent religious body in
Indonesia," he told reporters upon his arrival from Jakarta, Indonesia
at the KL International Airport, here, last night.
Jamil Khir was in Indonesia on a three-day visit to meet Indonesian
Religious Minister Suryadharma Ali, religious bodies and non-government
organisations.
