Hajvery University hosted one day National Conference on Islamic Banking & Finance. The National Conference on Islamic Banking & Finance was attended by prominent speakers who shared their views with the Audience.
The keynote speakers discussed that interest in Islamic banking has grown considerably during the last decade. The main issues of concern are the conceptual framework and viability of interest-free banking, and the assessment of its performance and future. In a world where conventional interest-based finance is the dominant framework, Islamic banking faces many challenges that must be addressed.
The purpose of the National Conference on Islamic Banking & Finance is to analyze the past experiences of Islamic banks, to provide an objective assessment of their success and failure, and to discuss the contemporary issues and challenges confronting them.
The following keynote speaks addressed the Conference:
Mufti Muhammad Iftikhar Baig
Shariah Advisor ABL Islamic Banking
Dr. Professor Muhammad Saad Siddiqui
Islamic Studies Dept. University of the Punjab, Lahore
Mr Yasir Tariq
CEO Wasil Foundation
Dr. Salman Ahmen
Islamic Banking Expert
Hajvery University (HU)
An essential feature of Islamic banking is the prohibition of interest (“riba”). The interest-free Islamic banking is based on the concept of profit-and-loss sharing, where the lender shares losses with the borrower. The question is whether this system can be relevant in the world of revolutionary, technology-driven global finance. Islamic banks mushroomed across the world. Many conventional banks nowadays have Islamic windows or separate branches that deal with Islamic financial products. The fact that Islamic banks have been around for the last decades and continue to prosper is a proof of the viability of Islamic finance in a world dominated by interest-based banking.
U.S. Ambassador Scot Marciel hosted a dinner reception December 7 in honor of 130 alumni of the U.S. government-sponsored South East Asia Youth Leadership Program (SEAYLP). The alumni were in Jakarta to attend the first-ever SEAYLP Summit. The 130 students, representing all 10 ASEAN member states, had traveled to the United States for the three-week SEAYLP exchange program on leadership and community engagement. Alumni from the program have gone on to implement service projects in their home countries in fields such as child literacy and recycling. While in Jakarta, the students participated in workshops, visited the ASEAN Secretariat, and volunteered alongside Indonesian NGOs for community service projects. The Summit provided the opportunity to network across national boundaries, build ties between the US and ASEAN, and identify common issues facing ASEAN countries and other Pacific nations.

A great number of people have recently arrived in Nyal payam, coming in the last weeks for fear of their safety amidst insecurity, despite a recently-signed peace accord.
At least 78,000 people displaced in Koch, Leer, and Mayiandit counties have arrived in Panyijiar County of Unity State as a result of continued fighting, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said.
According to the agency, insecurity and lack of access to vital supplies to South Sudanese was making it hard for humanitarian actors to deliver the necessary assistance to the most affected groups of displaced persons in parts of the country.
Fighting resumed last month despite a signed peace accord between the South Sudan government and the armed opposition forces led by the country's former vice president, Riek Machar.
Over the past month, insecurity and lack of access to vital supplies have continued to force South Sudanese to flee in search of safety, assistance, and protection, said OCHA.
In August, the report says, there was increased displacement of people due to fighting in and around Koch, Leer, and Mayiandit counties in Unity State and Wau Shilluk in Upper Nile.
As offensives continue between forces loyal to both factions in the south of Unity State, 18,000 people reportedly reached Nyal payam in Panyijiar in search of food and safety in recent weeks. This was in addition to the numbers who had fled there prior.
The World Food Programme (WFP) is providing food and nutrition assistance to the area; UNICEF is also present on the ground to treat severe acute malnutrition and to help with other various needs, including childhood education.
The host community has taken in those displaced, whether by welcoming them into their homes or by sharing land, food, and other resources.
