Jakarta, MINA – The National Committee for Sharia Economics and Finance (KNEKS), the Indonesian Islamic Health Effort Assembly (MUKISI), and Bank Muamalat have collaborated to strengthen sharia financial services in the health sector through a strategic online discussion on Friday.
Acting Director of Halal Product Industry at KNEKS, Putu Rahwidhiyasa, emphasized the importance of implementing DSN-MUI Fatwa No. 107/2016, which mandates sharia hospitals to use sharia financial services.
