FAUZAN BIN MUSTAFFA 1 Chapter 1 Introduction 2 Chapter 1: Introduction 1.1 Introduction Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia officially opened on 12 December 1998. The museum is a 30,000 square metre building which is located amid the leafy environment of central Kuala Lumpur’s Lake Gardens. It is the largest Islamic arts museum in Southeast Asia. The IAMM consists of 12 galleries and houses more than ten thousand artefacts. The museum puts emphasis of Islamic works from Asia instead of Persian and Middle Eastern countries. China and Southeast Asia are well represented. Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia was founded by Syed Mohamad Albukhary and his brother, Syed Mokhtar Albukhary, the chairman of the Albukhary Foundation, helped to build and develop the museum. The former Prime Minister, Tun Dato’ Seri Dr Mahathir bin Mohamad, suggested to hire craftsman from Uzbekistan and Iran, who are well known in the Islamic world for their rich artistic heritage and continued practice of traditional crafts. Forty skilled craftsmen from both countries came down to produce the museum building. Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia became the custodians of the Islamic Centre (JAKIM) which was entrusted to them by the Malaysian Government at the official launch of the museum. The museum opens every day from 10am to 6pm while the museum restaurant opens on Tuesdays to Sundays from 10am to 6pm. 3 1.2 Problem Statement and Issues People are not aware of the fact that Islamic arts exists in the Islamic world as the perception of Islam is negative most of the time. Non-Muslims have very little knowledge of Islam and its culture compared to Muslims because they are exposed to the negative aspects of the religion more than the positive aspects. 1.3 Objectives and Aims Objectives ● To raise awareness that Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia showcases the education of Islamic arts from all over Asia ● To educate people that Islam contains art that is just as beautiful as the religion Aim ● To understand the culture and see how life was lived in the Islamic world 4 Chapter 2 Product 5 Chapter 2: Product 2.1 Museum Name Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia 2.2 History of the Museum It started when Syed Mohamad Albukhary, the director of Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia, was offered a collection of Islamic gold coins by an art dealer. He intended to present the coin collection to the Malaysian Government therefore he wrote to the Prime Minister’s office in 1996 and requested an appointment to see the Prime Minister. To his surprise, he received a letter requesting the reason for the meeting and another one confirming the date of the meeting. During the meeting, the Prime Minister commented that it would be a good idea for Malaysia to have the coin collection but the country needed to have an Islamic Museum first. Later, Syed Mohamad met with his brother, Syed Mokhtar, chairman of the Albukhary Foundation, and discussed about his meeting with the Prime Minister. His brother immediately suggested that the Albukhary Foundation take the responsibility to build and develop museum for the government as a gift to Malaysians. Syed Mohamad then requested a meeting with the Prime Minister to give him the news. In the next few months, they looked for possible locations around Kuala Lumpur. Once identified, the location was proposed to the Malaysian Government 6 and it was approved on 16th May 1997. A ground-breaking ceremony was then officiated by the former Prime Minister, Tun Dato’ Seri Dr Mahathir bin Mohamad. 2.3 Product Characteristics Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia charges the visitors with tickets before entering the museum’s galleries.

  • New Albukhary Foundation Gallery of the Islamic World to Open 18 October 2018
    Press release New Albukhary Foundation Gallery of the Islamic World to open 18 October 2018 The Albukhary Foundation Gallery of the Islamic World opens to the public on 18 October 2018. A major re-display of the British Museum’s world-class Islamic collection, the new gallery will be a comprehensive presentation of the Islamic world through art and material culture. Situated within a new suite of rooms at the heart of the Museum, it will underscore global connections across a vast region of the world from West Africa to Southeast Asia and reflect links between the ancient and medieval as well as the modern worlds. Islam has played a significant role in great civilisations as a faith, political system and culture. The new gallery will feature objects that give an overview of cultural exchange in an area stretching from Nigeria to Indonesia and from the 7th century to the present day. From cooking pots to golden vessels, and from 20th-century dress to contemporary art, the objects displayed will demonstrate the extraordinary richness of global encounters. The place and role of other faiths and communities including Christians, Jews and Hindus - will be reflected throughout the gallery, showing their significant contributions to the social, economic and cultural life of the Islamic world. The British Museum’s collection of Islamic material uniquely represents the finest artworks alongside objects of daily lifesuch as modern games and musical instruments. The collection includes archaeology, decorative arts, arts of the book, shadow puppets, textiles and contemporary art. The creation of the Albukhary Foundation Gallery provides an extraordinary opportunity to display these objects in new ways that showcase the peoples and cultures of the Islamic world, as well as the ideas, technologies and interactions that inspired their visual culture.

  • Evaluation of the Islamic World Gallery at the British Museum
    Evaluation of the Islamic World Gallery at the British Museum An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science BY: Dian Chen Yang Gao Anna Mederer Meadow Wicke DATE: 20 June 2019 SUBMITTED TO: Professor Joel Brattin, Advisor Professor Seth Tuler, Advisor Stuart Frost, Sponsor This report represents the work of four WPI undergraduate students submitted to the faculty as evidence of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. For more information about the projects program at WPI, see http://www.wpi.edu/Academics/Projects Abstract The goal of our project was to assess how visitors engaged with the Albukhary Foundation Gallery of the Islamic World in the British Museum. The Albukhary Gallery replaced the John Addis Gallery, which presented a narrow view of Islamic culture and attracted few visitors according to previous evaluations. We conducted counting, timing, tracing, and surveying to measure visitor engagement in the new gallery and provide a benchmark for future evaluations. From the heat and trace maps we generated, the newly displayed objects (instruments, clothes, and works on paper) presented high attracting and holding power. We recommended that the British Museum provide detailed descriptions and translations for objects, integrate audio clips for displayed instruments, and make family labels obvious. i Executive Summary The mission of the British Museum is to “inspire and excite visitors … through well- presented and serviced public galleries and study collections” (“Report and accounts,” 2003).

  • Class and Politics in Malaysian and Singaporean Nation Building
    CLASS AND POLITICS IN MALAYSIAN AND SINGAPOREAN NATION BUILDING Muhamad Nadzri Mohamed Noor, M.A. Political Science College of Business, Government and Law Flinders University Submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2017 Page Left Deliberately Blank. Abstract This study endeavours to deliver an alternative account of the study of nation-building by examining the subject matter eclectically from diverse standpoints, predominantly that of class in Southeast Asia which is profoundly dominated by ‘cultural’ perspectives. Two states in the region, Malaysia and Singapore, have been selected to comprehend and appreciate the nature of nation-building in these territories. The nation-building processes in both of the countries have not only revolved around the national question pertaining to the dynamic relations between the states and the cultural contents of the racial or ethnic communities in Malaysia and Singapore; it is also surrounded, as this thesis contends, by the question of class - particularly the relations between the new capitalist states’ elites (the rulers) and their masses (the ruled). More distinctively this thesis perceives nation-building as a project by political elites for a variety of purposes, including elite entrenchment, class (re)production and regime perpetuation. The project has more to do with ‘class-(re)building’ and ‘subject- building’ rather than ‘nation-building’. Although this thesis does not eliminate the significance of culture in the nation-building process in both countries; it is explicated that cultures were and are heavily employed to suit the ruling class’s purpose. Hence, the cultural dimension shall be used eclectically with other perspectives.

This paper elaborates the contribution of selected waqaf entities in Turkey and Malaysia in improving the socio-economic conditions of the society. The waqaf entities involved in this study include two corporate waqaf institutions from Malaysia, namely Al-Bukhary Foundation and Kumpulan Waqaf An-Nur Berhad; and four waqaf entities in Turkey, namely, IHH Foundation, Diyanet Foundation, Hakyol Foundation, and TIMAV. This study discusses the projects and programs undertaken by these selected waqf entities to achieve their respective objectives. Such a comparison is important considering the diverse experiences of these selected waqaf entities in view of the differences in their endowments and different corporate management models. The paper investigates whether these waqaf entities have implemented a novel approach in developing waqf programs and experimenting new ways of new reaching out to the beneficiaries.

  • (TC121-1) the ISLAMIC SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY .Pdf
    Copyright © IMBRe Institute for Management and Business Research (IMBRe) Universiti Utara Malaysia Page | 1 Introduction “I never forget my roots and humble days. I remembered once when my father, a cattle trader, was away for a long period of time, and there was no rice at home. My mother urged me to contribute to the poor, regardless of race and religion. So I made arrangements for half of my income of RM1,500 to be donated. It is a practice that still goes on with poor families receiving RM50 each every month.” -Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Albukhary, President, Albukhary foundation Albukhary Foundation: The Caring Side of Syed Mokhtar Albukhary The Albukhary Foundation traces its roots to the first company set up by him in 1974, which he help the first 15 families that were in need from the half of his income profited from his business then donated to the poor families in his village. Despite Syed Mokhtar Albukhary being the richest Malay businessman in Malaysia today, his past experience of poverty gave him the understanding for the hardship of the poor and the needy people in the society. The foundation translates the founder’s gratitude to Allah S.W.T for all the blessings and fortune that he has. According to the founder, his foundation is not based on the western concept of corporate social responsibility; but it is an Islamic social responsibility which is purely based on Taqwa and Ehsan values. That can be emulated by other Muslim businesses and companies. As the gap between rich and the poor widen in many societies, adoption of such foundation practices by Muslim companies and businesses based on the Islamic social responsibility could help improve on the social welfare of the people.

  • Derailing Development:China's Railway Projects and Financing Coalitions in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines
    Global Development Policy Center GCI WORKING PAPER 008 • 01/2020 GLOBAL CHINA INITIATIVE Derailing Development: China’s Railway Projects and Financing Coalitions in Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines ALVIN CAMBA Introduction Why do major development projects get delayed while others progress? Where do these projects encounter opposition? This paper examines the sources and nature of delays in major development projects. While literatures on development financing are substantive, scholars continue to treat project completion or cancellation as a byproduct of weak institutions (Dueñas-Osorio & Vemuru 2009), Alvin Camba is a PhD lack of technical capacity (Pinto & Mantel 1990, Diallo & Thuillier, 2004), or the financing institution’s candidate in Sociology at decision to withdraw (Mashatt et al. 2008).1 However, when these concerns are insignificant or already Johns Hopkins University, accounted for, what factors enable—or inhibit—project progression? As the World Bank researchers a non-resident fellow at the found (Legovini et. al 2015), financiers – foreign banks, firms, or international organizations – spend Stratbase-ADR Institute, and a millions to compensate for delays in major projects, leading to significant political and economic predoctoral fellow at the Global costs. In order to better explain project outcomes, I examine three comparable cases of Chinese Development Policy Center at railway projects in Southeast Asia. Specifically, I investigate the Bicol South Rail Project (BSRP) in the Boston University. He bridges the Philippines (2016-), High-speed rail (HSR) in Indonesia (2014-), and the East Coast Railway in Malaysia study of international political (2016-). I ask, what have been the sources of delays in the major Chinese railway projects and what economy, political sociology, has allowed them to progress despite these issues? Where and when have Chinese railway projects and development.

  • Biografi Syed Mokhtar Albukhary Pdf
    Biografi syed mokhtar albukhary pdf Continue During his early business Syede Mokhtar discovered failures in the business of cattle and meat as a result of wild centuries loved to trade his youth. However, the religious values inserted into it and the assistance of families quickly gave rise to disco, thus continuing the efforts and business of freight transport, and began to succeed. A freight transport business with no higher education and only little business experience, Syed Mokhtar started the freight trucking business in 1972 at the age of 21 after hard work to get a truck and a loan permit from MARA. Officials at the Ministry of Transport at the time welcomed the youth to be ready to break into a business field dominated by the Chinese, thereby endorsing four permit trucks, although he only applied for two. He started the business with two trucks only while two other permits were retained for use as the company grew. At no time did he receive an offer from a Chinese tugboat to inhale one chance to buy him two unused permits. He rejected this wind-top profit offer and avoided the alibaba business, but appointed an experienced Chinese in the field as the company manager on a monthly salary provided that each driver was Malay. Startup Rice Business He began expanding his business as a rice dealer in 1976 after four years of running a freight business. With increased experience and accumulated business assets, he explored another more complex sector than his first business. The rice business sector at the time, which was dominated by Chinese traders, was well controlled with a strong network and was extremely difficult to manage.

In Malaysia, there is insufficient research being carried out in the scenario of family owned and non-family owned businesses. Hence, this study will look into ISO certified (or planning to apply for ISO or any other quality certifications) family owned and non-family owned enterprises from the quality management perspective towards improvement in organizational performance based on four perspectives, namely employee satisfaction, customer satisfaction, product quality and strategic business performance. One hundred and eighty six respondents gathered through self-administered questionnaires were analyzed with Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method to test the relationship between TQM practices (i.e. leadership, strategic planning, human resource management, process management, customer focus and information and analysis) and organizational performance using SmartPLS software. The findings from this study have identified leadership and customer focus positively and significantly associated with organizational performance.
