YOUR
FEEDBACK
I want to thank you for DS100 Research. Thank
you for giving answers to "What's happening about
economics in the Islamic World?" question.
Y. Kocaman, Turkey
"I
am on the editorial board of the leading Bangladeshi
business magazine, The Executive Times. I found
your list of 100 Muslim companies very interesting.
It certainly buries the otherwise conventional
view that Islamic corporations are mostly in the
oil business. What I was interested in was whether
your team looked at some of the Bangladeshi corporations
and conglomerates. If so, how far are they from
the bottom of your list?"
R. Mostafa, Bangladesh
"Your
2004 DS100 is a very useful first attempt to rank
companies in the Muslim world. I am certain that
the rankings will become more accurate over time.
It would also be useful to also include the profits
of those companies ranked and to provide a ranking
by profits."
Hock, Malaysia
"It
is interesting that you fail to consider the nature
of some of the businesses that you have included
in your so-called top companies in the Muslim
world. Being a Malaysian, we know for a certain
fact that companies such as Genting Highlands
and Berjaya Group Holdings have businesses which
deal directly with gambling and entertainment.
A clear violation of basic Islamic tenents. I
hope that the criteria will be further strengthend
to reflect the true nature of businesses which
you consider to be the most exciting in the Muslim
world."

In
this first attempt, our criteria
was to include all domestic companies based
in OIC countries. At this time we did not
add another filter to qualify a 'Muslim'
company.
Also, Genting Highlands and Berjaya Group
Holdings were not highlighted in our 10
Most exciting companies of the DS100, but
were in the overall DS100 ranking based
on revenues.

"Thank
you for your prompt reply. I sincerely hope
that you will be able to come up with a
better listing that also includes companies
which operate under the basic principles
of Islam. Even though I did not agree to
the addition of such companies to the list,
I think it is best that we try to emulate
the best practices in such organizations
in order to better improve the quality of
service offered by companies which are run
and operated by Muslims."

"It
was very interesting to know that the muslims
economic is getting better and better everyday.
The top 100 companies listed are amazing, with
billions of revenue."
