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

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.

Prince of Wales hosted their second annual Lunar New Year celebration to welcome the Year of the Dragon. This event was supported by over sixty volunteers in our parent community and over seventy student volunteers. The event was coordinated by SWIS workers Jenny Choy and Audrey Leung along with parent volunteers, Rae Lo and Yoon Lee. The event began with a professional lion dance which made its way through the hallways of the school and led the students into the beautifully decorated cafeteria where students performed and parent volunteers provided and served a huge buffet of cultural Korean and Chinese food. Performances included: K-Pop band, Tae Kwon Do, Traditional Chinese dance, Korean traditional percussion music, Chinese string, hip-hop dance and a string quartet. With the vast majority of PW staff and students in attendance, an atmosphere of festive celebration was felt throughout our school community. This event was a huge success thanks to the student, staff and parent volunteers.

CEA Project Logistics played host to the KONECRANES Generation C launch at their Free Trade Zone Warehouse in Laem Chabang Thailand.
The event, organised by the KC Lift Trucks division of KONECRANES drew a multinational crowd from all over Asia with more than 100 guests in attendance eager to see the next generation in lift trucks. Before the grand unveiling Patrik Lundback Regional Sales & Service Director opened proceedings by welcoming all guests and thanking them for their interest in Generation C, further adding “The Generation C lift truck is a collection of refinements and bold new technologies that improve our lift trucks in ways that make them safer, cleaner, quicker and more cost effective. We are very happy to be the first region outside of Europe and North America to launch the Generation C.”
The C series lift truck includes a completely new driver’s cabin with first-in-class features to enhance safety, comfort and productivity. The C series also boasts increased reach stacker lifting performance, an enhanced TRUCONNECT® remote monitoring system and improved engine performance. The C series is equipped with common platform diesel engines that meet emission legislation levels EU Stage II / EPA Tier 2, EU Stage IIIA / EPA Tier 3, or EU Stage IV / EPA Tier 4f. These new engines are in general several decibels more silent and can save up to 6% in fuel consumption over previous ones.
After the formalities a sumptuous buffet lunch was provided for all allowing some time for networking and the forging of new friendships. After lunch a presentation was given about Generation C to showcase the state of the art systems developed by KONECRANES which are featured in their new line of vehicles. As the unveiling grew near a traditional Thai war dance began increasing in tempo until the curtain was dropped and the guests got their first glimpse of a Generation C Reach Stacker, the unveiling was accompanied by a fantastic light and smoke show. As the smoke cleared the guests got up close and personal by being allowed on to the vehicle and into the futuristic cabin.
The new driver’s cabin offers operators class-leading spaciousness and superior visibility made possible by an even more ergonomic layout with integrated seat-mounted controls. The industry’s first 7” touch screen color display provides full truck monitoring including eco-drive, fuel management and driver login. The touch screen monitor also supports an optional integrated rear-view camera and tire pressure monitoring.
The CEA Facility was chosen as a venue due to their state of the art Air Conditioning systems installed at their Free Zone Warehouse in Laem Chabang, although temperature outside was a sweltering 36 degrees centigrade all the guests inside were enjoying a lot cooler weather!
December 27, 2018 - I have never been a fan of the OAT Home Hosted Lunches as I have said before in my photo feed, however we had a very enjoyable lunch with this Christian family in Madaba. The lunch and conversation was very good. The daughter took a group selfie photo with all of us and I was the point person she was going to email it too. There was a communication breakdown and I never got the email. I was going to share the pictures I took with the family.

The Ariekene (Hosts) are the sentient species who live on the planet that is the setting of China Mieville's EMBASSYTOWN. Reading the book, which is an intricate mind-bending 'SF Space Opera' novel where semiotics and linguistics take the stage instead of Secret Technology and Planetary/Galactic War.
The species is 'impossible' for the humans to initially comprehend, and as I read the book, I felt I needed to take a shot at visualizing them. It was no easy task, as these process sketches indicate.

While we congratulate all of the run participants, a special shout out goes to our first place finishers! Jonathan Gonzalez was able to break the 20 minute mark with a time of 19:40. Beth Coulman was our fastest female with a finishing time of 24:15.
We were thrilled to have such a great turnout of people who ranged from marathon runners to families crossing the finish line hand in hand. We all have our way to connect with this amazing island and on Saturday this group of energetic fans of fitness found their park on Assateague! (Photos: Krystina Carpenter)
