Batam (ANTARA News) - Malaysia`s state of Malaka has contributed some 100,000 ringgit (300 million rupiah) to Batam-based Quran Centre in a bid to help develope this institution, an official said.

Malaka administration submitted the donation when Riau Islands governor Ismeth Abdullah and Hamadi visited the neighboring state of Malaka on Thursday (Nov 15).
