7 Foreword The Muslim world constitutes about one-fifth of the world s population. This means that higher poverty incidence in the Muslim world will contribute significantly to the total poverty incidence in the world. It is against this backdrop that the authors deserve commendations for their attempts to investigate poverty and the ways to reduce poverty in the Muslim world. The increasing incidence of poverty in the developing world has led many individuals, both in the public and private domains, to question the effectiveness of the conventional poverty alleviation strategies, and has led to the growing need to explore alternative policy approaches to alleviate poverty, particularly in the developing countries. This is due to the fact that poverty amidst plenty has been seen as the greatest challenge of the twenty-first century (World Bank 2000/2001: World Development Report Attacking Poverty ). The global picture of poverty is not encouraging. Out of the estimated world s over six billion people, 1.23 billion (21 %) live under US $1 per day, 2.8 billion (47 %) live under US $2 per day. Average income has almost doubled in the developing countries, but widening global disparities have also increased the sense of deprivation and injustice for the poor. Globalization expects to burden the poor more than the non-poor. This scenario has well positioned the state as a key player in poverty alleviation. Even though different countries adopt different policies to eradicate poverty, which is based largely on the economic strength of the individual countries, the main goal of these strategies has been to achieve improved quality of life for their citizenry. With regard to natural resources, socio-economic development can be improved immensely by the efficient use of the endowment of valuable natural resources, particularly mineral resources, water resources and land. Therefore, utilization of natural resources seeking to achieve socio-economic development must be done in a manner that will not expose the majority of the population to environmental externalities, especially the poor people. It has been acknowledged that poverty and poor environment stewardship reinforce each one. The traditional consensus on poverty and environment is that poverty is both the cause and effect of environmental degradation. vii

8 viii Foreword Sustainable utilization of natural resources has crucial implications for poverty alleviation. The reason being that most of the economic costs of environmental degradation generally fall on the poorest due mainly to their inability to take remedial actions, engage in alternative livelihoods, and provide themselves with alternative sources of income and employment. In the developing countries, most of the people live in rural areas and are heavily dependent on natural resource based economy. Livelihoods can be made more resilient and sustainable when good governance becomes the bedrock of natural resources management. This is the subject-matter of this book. It will add value to the literature on natural resources, sustainable livelihoods and governance, at least, in the Muslim world. Institute for Environment and Development, UKM Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia Prof. Emeritus Chamhuri Siwar

9 Preface In this book, the authors have investigated poverty and its reduction strategies in the Muslim World using, as proxy, selected member countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). The principal objective in this study lies in exploring the possible channels out of poverty leading to livelihoods sustainability in the Muslim countries. The analysis has, therefore, been patterned along the parameters of natural resource endowments (particularly mineral resources), the level of social and economic development and finally the enabling role of governance in poverty reduction. Again, the significant role of Zakat in resources mobilization for poverty reduction has been demonstrated in this book, especially on the urgent need to give Zakat a befitting institutional support. Using linear regression in Chap. 8, the study has discovered an inverse correlation between GDP per capita PPP and poverty reduction. The coefficient of determination ( r 2 ) is.3672, which means % of reduction in poverty has been accounted for by the independent variable GDP per capita PPP performance. Although performance in social and economic development (measured by GDP per capita PPP for the period ) has taken a nose-dive except in 2007 for a few of the selected Muslim countries, the study has identified pockets of stronger GDP per capita PPP values with many of the oilproducing Muslim countries compared to the non-oil-producing countries. However, the study has found no correlation between oil-resource endowments (daily oil production) and poverty reduction, as some of the oil-producing countries pose high poverty headcount ratios as in many of their non-oil-producing counterparts. On the other hand, the majority of the oil-producing countries pose quite minimal poverty headcount ratios. This finding seems to suggest that natural resource endowments present mixed blessings if you like, and, to a significant extent, cannot be utterly described as constituting a complete curse or panacea, as portrayed in some quarters of the development literature at least in the case of the selected Muslim countries. Against this backdrop, the study has recommended, among others, the intensification of collaboration among the Muslim countries to facilitate achieving sustainable development objectives. For that reason, a multi-dimensional development collaboration model called Development Collaboration Octagon Model ( DeCOM ) has been developed that seeks to offer an alternative approach to ix

10 x Preface achieving effective collaboration among the Muslim countries and beyond. The model also seeks to fill the loopholes characterizing the existing conventional bilateral and multi-lateral collaborations. Acknowledgements We send our praises to Almighty God for enabling us to undertake and finish this book. In addition, we will like to acknowledge our deepest appreciation and profound gratitude to Emeritus Professor Chamhuri Siwar for urging the lead author to write his Ph.D. thesis on natural resources, governance and sustainable livelihoods in the Islamic countries, which has culminated into the writing of this book. We thank Prof. Dr. Mazlin Mokhtar, who is now the deputy vice chancellor of UKM (Research and Innovation), for his leadership as the director of the Institute of Environment and Development at the time we enrolled as Ph.D. candidates. Furthermore, we thank a former colleague of the lead author Dr. Walid Ahmed Abdu Ali, who is now working with UNDP in Yemen for his mammoth assistance in the collection of data on Zakat in Yemen and Malaysia. Many thanks to Mr. Azmir Hashim (Kuala Selangor) for translating some responses given in Bahasa Malaysia into English, Ms. Nasyrah Ahmad Damanhuri (Former graduate student at LESTARI, UKM) for interviewing the Zakat recipients in Bahasa Malaysia, Abdul-Hamid Abdul-Wahab (Master s degree student in Finance, IIUM) and Emiel Chowdhory (Student of IIS) for checking some of the tables. Our appreciation goes to the editorial team at Springer-Singapore, especially Mrs. Jayanthie Krishnan, Mr. Vishal Daryanomel and Ms. Kanako Tanaka for guiding us through the editorial process and our gratitude to Mr. Prakash Marudhu for his invaluable queries on the manuscript, and to two anonymous reviewers for their constructive comments. Finally, may God ( the most high ) bless and amply reward everyone who, in one way or another, is connected to the fulfillment of this book. Any shortfalls arising from this book remain the sole responsibility of the authors. Bangi, Selangor, Malaysia Abdul-Mumin Abdulai Elmira Shamshiry
