INDONESIAN ENTERPRENEUR CALLS ON MUSLIMS TO INVEST IN ISLAMIC CYBER CITY

Jakarta, 15 Rajab 1435/14 May 2014 (MINA) – Indonesian entrepreneurship expert Valentino Dinsi called on Muslims wherever they are (especially Middle East countries) to invest in the developing of the Islamic Cyber City.

“Muslims as a majority of Indonesian population must be able to establish their own civilization as the best generation ( a caliphate) in the world. Here, I call on Muslims to be a part of developing the Islamic Cyber City,” Dinsi said in an exclusive interview with Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA)’s reporter in Jakarta, Tuesday.

The expert initiated the idea of building Islamic Cyber City as a complex of integrated Islamic housing with technology-based orientation. Together with his colleagues, Dinsi is currently preparing all infrastructure equipments and rules.

“The Islamic Cyber City will be a model of Islamic civilization development center and economy will grow well here,” said the author of the book titled “Don’t Be a lifelong Labor”.

“The infrastructure equipments include a mosque and Islamic Center in the central of area, schools, business centers and markets, hospitals, media and information centers, and so on.  It will be run by the experts under the Muslims city council,” said the alumnus of the Faculty of Economics, University of Indonesia.

The man, who has received numerous entrepreneurship awards, stated many parties have expressed their support for realizing the idea. “Alhamdulillah many parties, both from professionals and government official supported this idea,” he said.

Valentino said, the Islamic Cyber City’s location is in the capital suburb as sub-urban areas. The area will make people easy to get in and  become a reference for domestic and foreign Muslim tourists.

The adviser of entrepreneurial community said, the measure of the success of Islamic Cyber City is that when in the Subuh (dawn) prayer, the number of prayers in the congregation are as much as Friday prayers. “That’s the measure of success according to the demands of our religion,” he said. 

“This year (2014) we are targeting completion of the master plan and its location. So that we can present the program to all Muslims. Insha Allah, in seven years Islamic Cyber City will be inaugurated,” he said.

“Hopefully, the Islamic Cyber City will become our pious and good deeds saving for our life in the hereafter and as the growth center for our next generation who will continue the struggle of Muslim ummah for improving and spreading Islamic civilization in the world,” he hoped.
