I was invited to moderate a session in the late afternoon on the above.Managed to catch a session earlier.Missed the opening (we had dept meeting) but I heard some fresh ideas on SD from Islamic perspective: Dr. Chandra Muzzafar: to address the matter, one has to know the Sustainer; Prof Hassan: wars do not help SD; students raised rights to live/protect God's creation; Prof Young offered and further refined some of the ideas esp on financial issues...he said the existing banking system/structure semua menindas cos' no profit or loss sharing ie no ownership between thse who borrow and those who lend the money.Patut dlm Islam..tak pyh pulang balik apa yg diambil e.g zakat, wakaf except to help oneself and/or community; Dato Osman Bakar's response to Pope Francis's encyclical was deep and profound (glad I chaired it).
Too bad besok I hv to miss Imam Feisal's session.I'm a fan.Besok Prof Raha dtg awal to talk on grants.
