Under the leadership of the Senate Chairman of STIBA Makassar, Ustaz Muhammad Yusran Anshar, Lc., M.A., Ph.D., the selection process was carried out carefully and transparently. All members of the STIBA Senate, consisting of various representatives, actively participated in determining the final results. Through acclamation, the participants of the consultation decided to retain the Chairman of STIBA and Senate Chairman for the 2019-2023 term as the leaders of STIBA Makassar for the upcoming 2023-2027 term.
Ustaz Akhmad Hanafi Dain Yunta, Lc., M.A., Ph.D., the current Chairman of STIBA Makassar, who will soon conclude his term, was reelected to lead STIBA Makassar. His success in advancing STIBA during his tenure, as well as his dedication and high commitment, were the main factors in the decision.
Similarly, Ustaz Muhammad Yusran Anshar, Lc., M.A., Ph.D., the Senate Chairman of STIBA Makassar, was also reelected to lead the Senate in the upcoming term. His strong leadership and profound understanding of educational and academic issues make him the right choice to continue leading the institution.
Both elected leaders, the Chairman of STIBA and the Senate Chairman, consider the positions as a weighty trust but remain committed to improving STIBA Makassar and strengthening the quality of education.
Aware of the weight of the responsibility entrusted to him, Ustaz Akhmad seeks guidance and blessings from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala in carrying out his duties as the director of STIBA.
“Indeed, this trust is very heavy, and of course, we all are responsible for taking STIBA to a better direction. Therefore, I seek guidance from Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala, protection, and hopefully, Allah Subhanahu wa Ta’ala grants us the strength to build STIBA together in the future, towards a better direction.”
“And personally, I apologize if there were many shortcomings in the first period. Hopefully, these shortcomings can be minimized, and even better, overcome in this second period,” he continued.
Ustaz Akhmad hopes to receive support from the lecturers and administrators in fulfilling this trust.
“On a personal note, with utmost humility, I hope for support from all the asatidz (lecturers) and all the administrators of STIBA Makassar to work together in building STIBA with synergy, collaboration, understanding, mutual assistance, and mutual cooperation among us. So, this is not just a cooperation but our field of servitude, our field of goodness that hopefully becomes our provision and a source of our goodness, increasing our rewards in the sight of Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala,” he concluded.
Meanwhile, the elected Senate Chairman stated that from the standpoint of trust, he believes there are many more deserving individuals to carry out this trust. However, on the other hand, he accepts the trust because he sees it as a bestowed trust and honor.
