JAKARTA - Vice President Ma’ruf Amin launched the 3rd batch of the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) at the Wisma Ambassador of the Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia, in Cairo, Egypt, Saturday, November 5. On that occasion, Ma'ruf reiterated that the key to achieving Indonesia Gold 2045 as a more advanced and prosperous Indonesia, is superior human resources who master science and technology. " “ President of the United Arab Emirates when meeting me said that Indonesia has the potential to become a big country, because it has abundant natural resources and a large population. I said, yes we have that, but we need science and technology,” said Ma'ruf in a press release in Jakarta, Antara, Sunday, November 6. This shows that other countries recognize Indonesia's great potential to become a developed country. However, what is needed now is superior human resources that are able to process all abundant resources in the country. “So Indonesia has great potential but also many of our weaknesses. Our human resources are not what we expected,” he said. Therefore, the government continues to encourage Indonesian students as the nation's best assets, to get the best education at home and abroad. One of them is by continuing to launch various scholarships, including BAZNAS scholarships and Education Fund Management Institutions (LPDP). I entrust all students in Egypt to develop even better thoughts, further updated, in accordance with developments. And by saying bismillahirrahmanirrahim, the Cendekia BAZNAS Al-Azhar Scholarship of Egypt and the Middle East of 2022 I officially declare launched, "” said the Vice President. BAZNAS Chairman Noor Ahmad reports that the launch of the Cendekia BAZNAS Scholarship is intended for 300 beneficiaries, namely 100 high school graduates equivalent and has graduated at the Al-Azhar campus through the Ministry of Religion route, 100 people who are currently studying at Al-Azhar in the second and fourth years, and 100 other people are students from campuses located in other Middle Eastern countries. "“Egypt is one of the barometers of education in the Middle East with good quality of education, so it is hoped that graduates will provide many benefits when returning to Indonesia," said Noor Ahmad. This scholarship program, said Ahmad, is BAZNAS' effort to create a future superior generation, in accordance with BAZNAS's spirit to prosper the people through education. For this reason, said Noor Ahmad, he will continue to monitor the development of this scholarship. According to him, if with this scholarship the students are more motivated and pass on time, BAZNAS will continue to increase the number of recipients of the BAZNAS Cendekia Scholarship.
