Well hello again to mua blog.. hahaha...hmmm..
Today i will be writing on an experience i had while attending a congress, first time actually goin to one, great experience..great atmosphere... and especially the FOOD.. it was SUPERB... hehe... ok2...now.. let me start off with the fact part of this event...a bit of history class i might say.. =p
KEI-3 (Kongress Ekonomi Islam) held at PWTC, is an event aimed on discussing the current Islamic banking system that we have in Malaysia. It is organized by YaPEIM in collaboration with JAKIM.. The last time KEI-2 was organized was back in 1972... That event was a success which brought to creation of Resolutions and the existence of IIUM, Bank Islam as well as YaPEIMAs itself...
As we all know... the economic situation worldwide is said to be in recession.. this is despite prices of fuel dropping to aroun RM1.80 per liter in Malaysia....and globally to somewhat $3o per barrell...Therefore it is important for the government of Malaysia to conduct a research on how to establish the Islamic Banking system now and make it more concrete to reach its goal of a developed country by 2020..
The program was scheduled from 12-15 JAN.... But me and my friends decided just to attend the last two days of the event due to our tight class schedules.. hehehe... the first day we attended a full session from 8am-5pm... tiring... and a bit sleepy... h
ahaha... just listening to presenters giving their presentations... one of the proposals was to have an Islamic Business School... similar to what we have in the west.. such as Harvard business school.. interesting proposal... They also talked about the qualities that we should have to be a good entrepreneur. The interesting part was the Q & A session ... where the participants gave their own opinions on the governments current Islamic Economy rather than ask questions... some were even promoting their own business.. hahaha... =pFor the second day i juz went for half a day... juz to attend the closing session.... huhu... but it was a long2 closing speech.. sorry to say this.. but i actually fell asleep.. hahaha..
overall... da event went well... not always that we get the chance to attend a conference..hehe...
not to mention... we got a bonus for going there... RM 50 per day + excuse letter.. hehe... dat makes it RM100 for two days.. but that was not the main intention that i had to attend dat conference.. to whoever out there who might think dat... hahaha...
here are some pictures for dat event...
ENJOY >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Faisal, I was on my way back from the gym after a long day at work when radio24 aired the closing speech by the Regent of Perak Raja Nazrin at the closing of this EIC3 that you attended. Personally I was very impressed with the elocution indeed and was wondering if you as participant of the EIC3 were given a copy of the text to his impressive speech? I was very touched by the fact that as someone as high as Raja Nazrin is capable of delivering such beautiful speech that really touched my heart. If Faisal has a copy of the speech, please email abang iskandar at my email at iskanis@yahoo.com as I would love to see the text.
