REPUBLIKA.CO.ID,
JAKARTA --- The distribution of micro-finance or Ar-Rahn for small
micro enterprises (ARRUM) at the Pawnshop Sharia is still far from the
target. This is because the interest in micro-financing of mortgages is still minimal.
Pawnshop Islamic microfinance as of September 2011 is still around Rp 80 billion. The number is still far behind this year's target is set at Rp 200 billion. "Our
target was too optimistic, but we still try to increase until the end
of the year," said General Manager Pawnshop Sharia, Suhardjo, Tuesday
(25/10). (source)
