A speaker at Asian Economic Conference 2009: “Has Asia’s Time Come To Shine & To Be Positioned As a Global Leader?

I was given the opportunity to present the Islamic finance solutions to global economic crisis at the Asian Economic Conference 2009 held at Hotel Istana Kuala Lumpur on 18-19 May 2009 organised by Asian World Summit.

I feel so humbled to share the stage with world-class speakers which include New York Times bestselling author John Assaraf (USA), a former finance minister (Japan) , a former UN representative (Korea), a university professor (Hong Kong) and a top economist (Spain)...the giants in their fields of expertise.

Thanks Asian World Summit for inviting me to represent Malaysia in this conference.

A special month of May

May 2009 could be very special month for me. Not only it is a my birth month, it could be a major turning point in my consulting and training business, insyaAllah (God's willing).

Many positive indications pointing towards doing major consulting, advisory and training projects in Islamic banking, finance, business and property (Islamic city project) in 4 countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and an African country) starting from May 2009. I will provide consultation and training in the setting up of a new Islamic bank in a South East Asian country and consultation and training for a central bank of an African country on Islamic banking system.

It will be a very busy month in May. Come what may....may Allah help me.

It is time for me to deliver and honour my obligations....It is time to fly....
