The theme for the meeting was “Muslim Scholars and Social Science Research,” aimed at documenting, discussing and analyzing the types of scholarship or research that have been done about Muslims in the Southeast Asian region, particularly within the ASEAN countries. A select group of Muslim social science scholars (together with some Muslim politicians) from the countries within ASEAN, except Brunei, were invited to the “Forum.” They included: Drs. Dawan Raharjo and Nurcholis Majid, and Professor Moeslim (Indonesia), Drs. Surin Pitsuwan, Senee Madmarn and Chaiwat (Thailand), Drs. Yusof Talib and Hussain Mutalib (Singapore), Professors Taib Osman and Wan Hashim and Umar Farouq (Malaysia), and Drs. Carmen Abubakar, Madale and Mastura (Philippines). All participants were either presenters of papers or discussants. Throughout the four-day deliberations, participants discussed the types of studies and research that have been the focus of scholars studying Muslim communities in the ASEAN region. Some titles of papers included: “Muslim Studies in the Phillipines;” “Social Science Research in Thailand;” and “Social Science Research in Malaysia: the Case of Islamic Resurgence.” Given the “closed-door” ‘nature of the meeting (participation was by invitation only), there was adequate time for a more intensive, frank and thorough discussions of the papers. Problems and issues were aired and posed, and alternative options offered by participants. For every paper, there was a discussant; hence, the issues that came out of the papers managed to be seen, discussed and appreciated from a more complete and balanced perspective. By and large, the Bangkok meeting was a successful one.
