All that we had borrowed up to 1985 was around US$5 billion, and we have paid
about US$16 billion. Yet we are still being told that we owe about US$28 billion.
That US$28 billion came about because of injustice in the foreign creditors
interest rates. If you asked me what the worst thing in the world is, I will say it is
compound interest.

The act specifies only a company can engage in Islamic banking business.
Statutory body or a cooperative society cannot be granted a license.
Issues: Bank Rakyat could not be granted Islamic banks license because of its
status as a cooperative bank.
Section 3(5) :BNM or the Minister shall not recommend the grant of a license,
unless he is satisfied:
The aims and operations of the banking business will not involve any element which
is not approved by Islam
Provision for the establishment of Shariah advisory body in the article of association
of the bank to advise the bank
Where the normal banking practices do not clash with Islamic principles, the
Islamic banks have adopted the current banking practices and procedures.
Where any clash arise the Islamic banks have devised their own practices and
procedure to accomplish their banking activities.
However, the general definition may have some positive aspects such as: To
give much flexibility and scope as possible to enable IB to grow, expand
their operations and evolve into viable competitors to conventional banking.
Would also allow the adoption and application of different Islamic commercial
laws from the various madhabs, thus making it broader and the resulting
proposition of the law more widely acceptable.
The banking business provided by the Islamic bank in general similar to the
business provided by other commercial banks.
IBA does not stipulate clearly the concepts of its business, a so that IB can
engage in such trade and commerce as long as it does not contravene Islamic
principles.
This is due to the fact that principles of Islamic banking which prohibit any
involvement with interest.
Instead, an Islamic bank should derive its income from profit through trade or
business.
Islamic bank under the IBA 1983 must set up the Shariah Advisory Body (SAB)
to advise the bank on the operations of its banking business in order to ensure
that the business does not contravene the principles of Shariah.
The provision for the establishment of SAB clearly stated in Section 3(5) of
the IBA.
However, the IBA do not mention how the SAB will perform its role and duties.
Section 13A (1) : Islamic bank may seek the advice of the SAC on Shariah
matters relating to its banking business and the Islamic bank shall comply
with the advice of the SAC.
In this section, SAC means the Shariah Advisory Council established under
subsection 16B(1) of the CBA 1958.
For the banks and financial institutions licensed under the BAFIA which carry
Islamic banking business, there is no requirement to establish their own SAB.
It is not mandatory for the conventional banks and financial institutions that
offer Islamic banking products and facilities to have an internal SAC to advise
the banks.
Section 30A (1) : No person shall carry on international Islamic banking unless
it is:
Section 30A (2) : Any person who contravenes the provisions commits an
offence and be liable to a fine not exceeding RM20K or to imprisonment not
exceeding three years or both.
