On a trip to Guangzhou, China, organised by PUSPANITA last week (Feb 24-28), I observed that our Malaysian Palm Oil made its prescence significantly. China is one of the bigger traditional markets for our Golden Oil, importing thousands of tonnes of palm olein to feed millions of her population. Kentucky Fried Chicken(KFC) is using palm oil mainly to fry the French fries and the finger lickin'' good chicken. PUSPANITA, the Association of ladies and wives of the Malaysian Civil Service, made a social visit to the Malaysian Consulate General, located at Citic Plaza in Guangzhou. Other places of interest is Makam Abi Wakas, Sahabat Rasullullah(S.A.W.), which we visited during Maulidur Rasul (Prophet Mohamed's Birthday). The group of 20 members also made a shopping trip to Shenzen (about 2 hours drive from Guangzhou) at the Louhou Shopping Complex - everything under the sun is sold there. Overall, we have had a wonderful time in Guangzhou, reminding me again of our beloved Prophet Mohamed's statement, " Tuntutlah ilmu sehingga ke negeri China". It is wonderful to know that Islam is still very strong and still enjoy a very big following in certain parts of China.
P/S Mengikut wasiat Rasullullah, menuntut ilmu adalah sesuatu yang WAJIB dalam kalangan ummahnya. Ta'allamu, Ta'allamu, Ta'allamu (Berilmulah, Berilmulah, Berilmulah)
