SHAH ALAM: The government is prepared to strengthen the management of Islamic affairs in Malaysia to ensure that it is inclusive for the benefit of both Muslims and non-Muslims, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
He said he was grateful to the Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, for chairing the 70th Meeting of the National Council for Islamic Religious Affairs (MKI) here yesterday.
