UJ has entrenched the concepts of moderate and tolerant Islam through its academic programs and research on Islamic law (shari’a), said the Chairman of the Confederation of Islamic Councils in Thailand, Abdulrahman Abdulsamad during a meeting with UJ president Prof. Ekhleif Tarawneh.
Abdulsamad also commended the level of Thai students who graduated from UJ.
The meeting examined ways to expand collaboration and student exchange between the two sides.
UJ will spare no effort in supporting the Muslim international students, especially Thai students, Tarawneh said, adding that this stems from UJ’s global academic and humanitarian mission.
Moreover, Tarawneh suggested establishing a center for Arab culture and Islamic sciences in Thailand managed by academics and experts from UJ.
From his part, the first secretary at the Thai embassy in Amman Abaicheep Bunnag priced Tarawneh’s proposal, promising to convey it to the Thai government to consider its implementation along with ongoing mutual projects.
