Humanitarian Aid Policies Of Malaysian Fbos In Gaza, Palestine.
PhD thesis, Perpustakaan Hamzah Sendut.
Abstract
Less research priority is given to Faith-Based Organisation donors (FBOs)
activity in Gaza. This involves the effort to dissect the faith element as a potential
influencing factor to FBOs aid policies within the fragile state. The dominant research
over the past 20 years has been on Western state based donors’ aid modalities after the
Oslo agreement in 1993. Previous discourse highlighted the tight political and
economic regulations by Western donors, which affected how aid is distributed and
utilised by Palestinians. Studies also underscored the rather tense donor-recipient
relationship arising from such an arrangement. To address the gap, a phenomenology
in-depth qualitative research is conducted on seven FBOs from Malaysia or Malaysian
Faith-Based Organisations (MFBOs) operating in Gaza. MFBOs culture towards
Islamic altruism and their embraced Islamic aid financing practices are observed,
explored and dissected. MFBOs policies are also analysed against the Fragile State
Principles (FSPs).
