Abusallam made the statement when observing several Islamic learning institutes and cooperatives here.
"We are proud to see the development of Islamic-based education in Pekalongan unlike those of the Islamic education affairs in a number of developing countries," he said.
The visiting World Islamic High Learning Institutes League secretary general initially concerned about the development of Islamic-based education in Indonesia, but in reality the condition of a number of Islamic education in the city was quite advanced compared to the other developing countries.
Secretary general of the Egypt-based World Islamic High Learning Institutes League on the occasion also pointed out a discourse over his intention to set a network of Islamic-based educational institutions which was considered to be successful against the educational institution he lead.
"The existence of such network would promote the World Islamic education easier," Abusallam added.
