On October 17th, 2023, Akademi Zakat (AZKA-PPZ), represented by Mr Muhsin Nor Paizin (Manager of AZKA-PPZ) presented a research paper titled “PUBLIC VIEW ON THE TENDENCIES OF WAQF PROJECT SECTOR”.

This study will not cover any legal or regulatory framework aspect. The full view of the research slides can be accessed via: https://bit.ly/wzwf2023muhsin
