Neni Inaugurates Bankaltimtara Syariah Bontang

Bontang Mayor Neni Moerniaeni attended the inauguration of PT East Kalimantan and North Kalimantan Regional Development Bank (Bankaltimtara) Syariah Bontang sub-branch office (KCP) on Monday (8/10) at Jalan Awang Long, RT 08, Kelurahan Api-Api.

He supports Bankaltimtara's Bontang Branch step in developing innovations using the Islamic banking system. Given that approximately 78 percent of Bontang residents are Muslims. "If you don't innovate, you will miss it. Some other banks have already developed it.

Later, through this system how can Bankaltimtara Syariah implement a fair profit sharing pattern. Of course it must be better than conventional banks. With his philosophy, continued Neni, making it easier for people to try. "Obviously, if the profit sharing is obtained is clearer. We just move from conventional banks to Islamic banks," Neni said.

Even so, he also acknowledged the existence of Bontang's Bankaltimtara which was also the bank of the Bontang City Government. Because the mayor is the shareholder. Therefore, Neni invites the public to save to Islamic banks as well as the conventional bank Bankaltimtara Bontang branch.

"There's nothing wrong with sharing it like that," he said. On that occasion, he appealed to the head of the Bontang Syariah KCP to continue innovating, conveying it clearly and in detail to the public.

On behalf of the Bontang City Government, he congratulated him on the inauguration of Bankaltimtara Syariah. He wants Bankaltimtara Bontang and Bankaltimtara Syariah branches to grow healthily. Hopefully with the presence of this syariah system, the profits are better than conventional banks. "Hopefully it will bring blessings to the people of Bontang," he concluded.
