OIC Declares “Decade of Action”

June 29, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Kazakhstan is the site of an OIC meeting.

The Organization of Islamic Countries was renamed Organization of Islamic Cooperation. Members of many Islamic countries met in Astana, Kazakhstan to strengthen the bonds among the denizens of the Muslim World. The Secretary General of the enterprise called for a decade of action in countries such as Palestine, Libya and Syria. He spoke of how “unfortunately the Ummah still lacks – in certain parts –  the necessary internal cohesion, strength, solidarity.”

He also declared that “the Muslim World is going through a defining moment in its history.” Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, the Secretary General, also said that “the OIC Charter and Ten Year Program of Action are guided by the principles of moderation and modernization.” He called for the member states to recognize the Palestinian state. Libya and Syria were also cause for concern.

The Muslim World has its series of problems and faces certain teething troubles in its progress. The fact that the different cultures that constitute the Islamic Polity are willing to sit down together and iron out any differences is a sign of hope and pride.

Kazakhstan Hosts Economic Forum

June 7, 2011 By Leave a Comment

The Seventh World Islamic Economic Forum begins in Astana.

The Muslim World too must look towards solving its economic issues. It was by keeping this spirit in mind that the Seventh World Islamic Economic Forum (WIEF) opened its doors to hundreds of interested individuals. Scheduled for three days, the Forum will look into the business potential in Islamic countries not to mention economic problems and their solutions on an international level.

Heads of state, industrial magnates, members of the intelligentsia, experts, professionals and leaders in management will gather on one platform in Astana, the capital of Kazakhstan. Beginning its journey in 2005 when it was held in Kuala Lumpur, the WIEF has progressed considerably from a time when only a few hundred attended the function. Today over 2000 are foreseen to be there at the event.

This is a good sign since the Muslim World must finally unite under duress. And it is a well-known fact that a strong economic base is a boost to all sorts of cultural activities which in turn form a feedback loop and enhance the infrastructure.
