Program Perancangan Kewangan Islam (PEWANGI) – Politeknik Banting

The Program Perancangan Kewangan Islam (PEWANGI) was successfully held at Politeknik Banting on 23 August 2025. The program introduced participants to the fundamentals of Islamic-based financial planning, using the Dome of Needs as a guide and the concept of wealth management as its core framework.

“Enhancing Islamic financial literacy is the key to empowering a competitive, Shariah-grounded generation.”

The workshop was delivered by Puan Suzana Hj Ali together with Hajah Rohani Datuk Hj Mohd Shahir, who shared knowledge, experience, and practical guidance on personal financial management based on shariah principles.

Throughout the program, participants engaged in several interactive sessions, covering cash flow management, financial health diagnosis, short-, medium- and long-term financial goal setting, and retirement strategies using investment instruments. They also took part in the Muamalat Interactive Game (MIG), a simulation that provided hands-on experience in making financial decisions in an interactive and enjoyable way.

The program received strong support from its strategic partner and sponsor, CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad, reflecting their commitment to strengthening Islamic financial literacy among the community, especially students.

KIWF is pleased to record its highest appreciation to the distinguished guests present: Mr. Zarul Hafizh, Director of Corporate Banking, CIMB Islamic Bank; Pn. Hjh Rohani Datuk Hj Mohd Shahir, Chairman of Khadijah International Waqf (L) Foundation; Pn. Nurin Mastura Din Merican, Chief Executive Officer of Khadijah International Waqf (L) Foundation; Hjh Noralina Kamarudin, Managing Director of KIWF Consulting Sdn Bhd; and Mr. Mohd Khazaren Kusaini, Deputy Director of Academic Support, Politeknik Banting.

Their presence and support further strengthened the mission of this program to enhance Islamic financial literacy among participants. It is hoped that such efforts will continue in producing a financially literate generation that is not only competitive but also firmly grounded in shariah principles.

The PEWANGI session at Politeknik Banting marks the fifth edition organised by Khadijah International Waqf (L) Foundation, proudly sponsored by CIMB Islamic Bank Berhad. Previously, PEWANGI had been successfully conducted at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Universiti Islam Selangor (UIS), Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Shah Alam, and Universiti Selangor (UNISEL).
