Summary of Dr. Mahmood Kazim’s Message
Dr. Mahmood Kazim writes that his long-held dream was finally fulfilled with the completion of the Nasser Abdullatif Institute of Technology, which became part of the Muslim Vithaya School complex in Phuket. The project, costing 4.5 million Baht, was generously sponsored by Mr. Nasser Abdullatif Aserkal from Dubai. Construction began in July 1989 and took 16 months to complete.
He expresses deep sorrow over the passing of Mr. Nasser Aserkal on 1 April 1990 (6 Ramadan 1410 AH). He praises him as a compassionate philanthropist whose charitable work reached people across America, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, the Gulf, Asia, and the Far East, and prays that Allah grants him Jannah (Paradise).
Dr. Kazim explains that after successfully building:
- Muslim Vithaya School,
- Dubai Mosque,
- Darul Eitam (Orphanage),
he wanted to establish a technical school so Muslim students could receive vocational education and obtain stable employment. When he proposed the idea to Mr. Nasser Aserkal, Mr. Aserkal immediately agreed to finance it.
To provide long-term financial support for the school, two townhouses and a plot of land were purchased in Phuket. A 28-unit apartment building was later constructed on that land (1987–1988), generating approximately 780,000 Baht per year in rental income to help fund the Muslim Vithaya School complex.
Dr. Kazim also highlights the wider charitable projects supported in Thailand, including:
- Schools
- Mosques
- Technical schools
- Boys’ and girls’ dormitories
- Scholarships in medicine and dentistry
These projects extended from Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Phang Nga, Hat Yai, and Songkhla. He states that since 1985, the total value of these charitable works was nearly 60 million Baht, with Mr. Nasser Aserkal being the principal contributor.
He concludes by expressing his hope that all committees responsible for these charitable projects throughout Thailand will continue working together with unity, progress, and success.
Main Message
Dr. Mahmood Kazim wanted to honor Mr. Nasser Abdullatif Aserkal as the principal donor whose generosity made the Institute of Technology and many other charitable projects possible. He emphasized that education, vocational training, and sustainable funding were essential to helping Muslim communities become self-reliant, and he prayed that Mr. Aserkal’s legacy would continue to inspire future generations.

Founder's Biography & Vision
Ms. Tuanusanee Tonitae (Alice)
Ms. Tuanusanee Tonitae
Alice
"We are not merely building a university or a hospital. We are creating opportunities, developing people, and building the future—so that every life may receive dignified care, regardless of religion, race, or social status."
Founder's Journey
My name is Alice. I was born on 28 April 1982 in Phuket, Thailand. I began my education at a school in Phuket. After completing my upper-secondary education, my mother sent me to continue my studies in England at University College London (UCL), where I studied Arts and Business Administration.
While studying in the United Kingdom, I obtained a work permit as a traditional Thai musician, specialising in playing the khim, a traditional Thai hammered dulcimer. After classes each day, I travelled to perform Thai classical music at a Thai restaurant owned by Mr. Ahad. It was a large establishment with approximately 500 seats and was recognised as one of the leading Thai restaurants.
This period of my life taught me responsibility, perseverance, discipline, and the value of hard work. I continued this routine until I completed my studies.
After graduating, I returned to Phuket to continue the business established by my mother and elder brother under the name “Pool Care Thailand.”
Pool Care Thailand — Services & Scope:
* The company operates throughout Phuket and surrounding areas and supplies swimming-pool products and equipment across Thailand and throughout Asia.
The Amanah Entrusted by Our Benefactors
When my mother reached the age of 82 and became unwell, she asked me to find three commemorative books documenting the history and establishment of Muslim Wittaya Phuket School.
My mother and the school’s other founders received generous support from two important benefactors:
Dr. Mahmood Kazim
Co-founder & Benefactor
Mr. Nasser bin Abdullatif Alserkal
Co-founder & Benefactor
Their support led to the establishment of the Dubai Foundation and the construction of Muslim Wittaya Phuket School in 1986. At that time, I was approximately three to four years old. I witnessed my mother’s dedication as she worked from the beginning of the construction process until the school was successfully established.
The three commemorative books were created to record the benefactors’ contributions and the principal buildings established through their support:
- The Nasser Abdullatif Building
- The Dr. Mahmood Kazim Building
- Dubai Mosque
The books preserve an important amanah—a sacred trust and intention—entrusted by the two benefactors. Their wish was that, in the future, the institution should not provide education only from kindergarten through Grade 12. If the opportunity arose, it should be developed into a university or a higher vocational institution offering bachelor’s degrees.
Their intention was to create educational opportunities for Muslim youth, particularly underprivileged students, children from families with limited financial resources, and orphans, enabling them to build better futures for themselves, their families, and society.
Today, the school serves approximately 3,000 Muslim students. This amanah is therefore not merely a memory from the past; it is a mission that I am determined to continue and bring to fruition.
The Vision of Halal Wellness World Phuket
I am currently developing the concept of “Halal Wellness World Phuket,” with the goal of establishing an international centre in Phuket dedicated to medicine, nursing, healthcare, rehabilitation, elderly care, education, and wellness-oriented residences.
The project’s vision includes:
Development Divisions:
1. Foundation & Public-Benefit
This division will comprise a mosque, university, hospital, nursing home, and retirement home. Its mission will be to provide education, medical services, nursing care, and elderly care while awarding scholarships to academically capable students who lack financial resources, including orphans and young people from low-income families.
2. Commercial Division Supporting the Foundation
While the project does not yet have sufficient charitable donations, a sustainable source of revenue is needed to support the foundation’s mission. This led to the concept of developing 20 Luxury Halal Residences. A portion of the proceeds from villa sales and Halal Wellness World memberships will be allocated to purchasing land, constructing educational and medical facilities, and supporting the foundation’s public-benefit activities.
Halal Wellness World Membership Concept
The proposed international membership programme has been initially designed to include important services such as:
1. Emergency Air Ambulance
Worldwide air-ambulance coordination, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, for emergencies or cases requiring urgent travel for medical treatment.
2. Global Health Insurance
An international health-insurance plan with proposed coverage of approximately USD 3 million per case, subject to the terms, conditions, and approval of a licensed insurance provider.
3. Post-Treatment Recovery
Recovery at a Halal Rehabilitation Penthouse, Private Wellness Villa, or partner hotel, with nursing, nutrition, physiotherapy, and rehabilitation services.
4. Lawful Long-Term Residency
Coordination of lawful long-term residency in Thailand through an eligible visa or long-term residency membership programme, subject to the regulations and conditions of the relevant Thai government authorities.
* All programme details, fees, insurance coverage, and membership benefits will be subject to applicable laws, licences, contracts, and approval by the relevant authorities and authorised partners.
Educating a New Generation of Doctors & Nurses
At the heart of this project is the creation of educational opportunities for talented young people who lack the financial resources to pursue medical or nursing education.
The foundation aims to award scholarships to qualified students, enabling them to study at leading institutions. It will also seek academic collaboration with King’s College London or other appropriately accredited educational institutions.
After graduation, scholarship recipients will return to serve within the project, caring for patients, elderly residents, and members of the wider community. In this way, they will return the opportunities they received by contributing their knowledge and abilities to society.
Our goal is to “develop a new generation of doctors and nurses”—not merely to prepare them for a profession, but to cultivate knowledgeable and compassionate healthcare professionals who can make the greatest possible contribution to humanity.
The Founder's Commitment
My commitment is not limited to helping Muslims, because illness recognises no religion, race, or social status.
Halal Wellness World Phuket aims to welcome and care for everyone, whether Muslim or non-Muslim, through services founded upon respect for human dignity, personal beliefs, safety, and the equality of every life.
I believe that a successful business should help build a better society. The purpose of the project’s revenue is therefore not limited to generating profit. It will also provide the means to establish a university and hospital, award scholarships, care for elderly people, and enable disadvantaged children to become doctors, nurses, and professionals who bring lasting value to the world.
This is the amanah that my mother received from our two benefactors. It is now the mission that I am determined to continue with honesty, sacrifice, and the highest sense of responsibility.
