‐Services to the rubber smallholders are provided through various
development programmes/projects.
‐Replanting is the main activity, although other related activities
and supporting services are provided.
‐Block or group replanting is being encouraged, coupled with the
latest technologies through the transfer of technology.
‐The Production Incentive Programme covers two major projects,
i.e.,
the
supply
of
agricultural
inputs
and
an
increase
in
production and processing.
‐Human development is also given priority so that smallholders
will readily accept new development concepts.
‐One of the strategies for developing the rubber smallholder
sector is through cooperative movement where available
resources (i.e., human resources, capital and management skills)
are pooled.
IKIM
‐The Institute of Islamic Understanding, Malaysia was first
suggested due to the confusion among Muslims and non‐Muslims
regarding Islam, which led to misunderstanding and animosity not
only between Muslims and non‐Muslims but also among the
Muslims themselves.
‐Whether we like it or not, many non‐Muslims are of the opinion
that Islam is a religion that is closely related to backwardness,
poverty and weaknesses. Of late, Islam has been closely
associated with violence and irrationality ‐ an act or thought which
is
without
principles.
‐We are deeply disappointed with this incorrect view of Islam and
Muslims. But the truth is that Muslims and Islamic nations are
really left behind, weak and dependent on other nations and their
people for their various needs in life in this modern world. At the
same time, the Muslims themselves find difficulty to co‐operate
and be united. They easily allow themselves to be used as tools
and to serve the interest of others. They are also unable and
sometimes do not want to help each other. Disunity and animosity
among them is so apparent as they often disagree among
themselves.
‐The administration of Islamic countries in this age is usually weak,
backward, often chaotic and disorderly. There is no Islamic
country which can be considered a major power and respected by
the world at large. All Islamic countries are only considered to be
developing countries even though there are some with enormous
wealth. The main reason for this is that the Islamic countries are
lacking in technology and sophistication.
