Invitation to the 6th World Islamic Economic Forum

The World Islamic Economic Forum has emerged as the foremost economics and business forum in the Muslim world. The Forum is a platform where world leaders, thought shapers and business converge to discuss trade and economic issues affecting the globe and not just the Muslim community.

The 6^th WIEF, to be held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre on 18-20 May 2010, is expected to attract an estimated 2000 participants from the global business community. It is poised to be the ultimate business meeting place for investors, fund managers, entrepreneurs, bankers and other business stakeholders. The pre-forum Women in Business Network and the Young Leaders Network will be addressed by some of the world’s most influential persons.

You are invited to join the South African delegation to the 6^th WIEF. The delegation will be led by a senior government representative and will be accorded preferential status. Arrangements will be made for the delegation to meet business counterparts in Malaysia and to visit places of interest.

 A 5 night package has been put together which includes flights, accommodation, airport transfers, delegates pack, a profile in the delegation brochure and assistance with individual meetings.

This could also be an opportunity to take in the sights of Malaysia by extending your stay and visiting some of the beautiful places in Malaysia. This would be a separate arrangement and an individual responsibility.

If you would like to join the South African delegation, kindly confirm with Zaid Mahomedy (contact details below) before 24 February 2010 as seats are limited to only 30 persons. A brochure containing the profiles of all delegates will be circulated at the WIEF. On confirmation of your joining the delegation, we will require your profile to insert in the brochure.
