berita di bawah ini mengenai rencana penyelengaraan Forum Ekonomi Dunia Islam di Malaysia, Oktober 2005.
kalau forum ini disebut sebagai "Davos of the Muslim world", barangkali saja nanti Malaysia akan layak disebut sebagai the Switzerland of the Muslim World. Kalo Malaysia nanti bisa jadi semacam "Switzerland" nya, mudah-2 an saja pada waktu itu Indonesia sudah bisa menjadi semacam "Jerman" ato "Perancisnya" gitu lhoh, .... ;-) ===( IM )================================================ <http://www.thejakartapost.com/detaillatestnews.asp? fileid=20050920170620&irec=3> September 21, 2005 World Islamic Economic Forum in Malaysia ---------------------------------------- to boost business, economic links KUALA LUMPUR (AFP): The World Islamic Economic Forum, an inaugural gathering of political and business leaders being held here next month, is aimed at boosting economic links among Muslim communities, organizers said Tuesday. Indonesia's President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono and Pakistan's Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz are slated to attend the event, which is being billed as the "Davos of the Muslim world" after the World Economic Forum held in Switzerland. "The forum will allow the world to take notice of the potential which lies within the resources and capabilities of the Muslim markets," organizing committee co-chair Mirzan Mahathir told reporters. "This has the potential to become the mini-Davos for the Muslim world," he said of the forum which will run for three days from Oct. 1. The reference to Davos, a gathering of global opinion leaders, reflects organizers' hopes of building more business and finance cooperation among nations from the 57-member Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC). Mirzan said non-OIC countries such as Australia and Britain have also been invited in a bid to market the potential of Muslim countries. "The WIEF comes at a critical juncture in the history of the Muslim world. At a time when Muslim solidarity is urgently needed, there is also a vital need to reach out to the non-Muslim world and forge dialogues and partnerships," he said. Malaysia's deputy foreign affairs minister Joseph Salang Gandum called for more alliances between Muslim nations to counter poverty and the disadvantages of the global trading system. "While many countries have benefited from the multilateral trade talks under the ambit of the WTO (World Trade Organization), many in the developing world, including most of the Muslim countries, continue to be lagging behind," he said. "By forging stronger alliances between Muslim nations and with strong participation from the private sector from the wealthy Muslim nations, we could help the less developed or low-income Muslim nations develop their economies."
