A bi agenda of DPPAI to do is to build a good and sincere relations with all Ull familiy and the community for mutual support in realizing mission of Islam in accordance with the expectations of all of us. One effort to build good, honest and open relationships is by issuing DPPAI profile so that all the academic community and the public can know about DPPAI vision, mission, programs and the people in the management structure.
