JAKARTA - The Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) will send 20 preachers/dai to Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The Director General of Islamic Community Guidance at the Ministry of Religion Kamaruddin Amin said those sent would participate in dai training as part of strengthening cooperation between the two countries.
"This activity is very important considering that Indonesia and the UAE are both multi-cultural," he said in his statement, Monday, May 22, which was confiscated by Antara.
Kamaruddin said the shipment of 20 preachers was one of the results of a meeting between the Ministry of Religion and the Head of the UAE Awqaf in Abu Dhabi some time ago.
Kamaruddin hopes that the training will further increase the competence, cruising power, and experience of cross-cultural preachers, especially related to the development of Islamic wasathiyyatul which was both developed in both countries.
"The preachers can exchange experiences regarding coexistence, tolerance, and moderation development in the plural community," said Kamarudin.
