Muhammad Yunus, in his acceptance speech delivered on Dec 10, in Oslo, described the prize as the highest
honour and dignity accorded to the hundreds of millions of women all around the world who struggle every day
to make a living and bring hope for a better life for their children.
It was a historic moment not only for them but for all those who work and feel for the poor everywhere.
Indeed, Malaysia was one of the first to recognise Yunus and his early work, through his association with
Universiti Sains Malaysia.
It goes back to 1986 when Yunus was part of the steering committee for "Projek Ikhtiar", an applied research
project based at the university. |
