Kebangkitan Islam Nusantara (Indonesia) : Yahya Cholil Staquf of Nadhlatul Ulama Indonesia Speaks In Jerusalem

 There is a new phenomenon arising out of Indonesia - it is called Islam Nusantara. Actually it is the moderate and progressive thinking (not progressive enough for me though) of the Nadhlatul Ulama. The NU is the largest Islamic organisation in the world with over 90 MILLION members !!

The present leader is Yahya Cholil Staquf (Pak Yahya) who is eloquent in both Bahasa Indonesia and English.

This video is four years old but it gives you an idea of where the NU is coming from. Not surprisingly this interview (before a sizeable crowd) took place in Jerusalem in Israel.  

The very fact that Pak Yahya was hosted in Jerusalem shows that they think differently and  that the world thinks differently about the Nadhlatul Ulama as well. 

This is a new force that is to be reckoned with, coming out of Indonesia.
