Ketua Umum Muhamadiyah bersama Presiden RI
Prof.Dr.Din Syamsuddin kembali terpilih menjadi ketua Umum Muhammadiyah periode 2010 - 2015 dalam Muktamar di Yogjakarta baru baru ini, beliau mengalahkan rekan sejawat lainnya yang ikut mencalonkan diri menjadi Ketua Umum, diantara yang mendapatkan suara signifikan adalah Prof. Drs. Abdul Malik Fajar mantan Menteri Pendidikan Republik Indonesia dengan perolehan suara kedua terbanyak.Walau dalam tradisi Muhammadiyah perolehan suara terbanyak tidaklah mutlak harus menjadi Ketua Umum, akan tetapi pada akhirnya Din Syamsuddin kembali memimpin Muhamadiyah dan itu adalah yang terbaik untuk Muhamadiyah.

Prof.Dr. Din Syamsuddin, Ketua Umum Muhamadiyah 2010 - 2015
Tanggal 03 Juli 2010 di Hotel Sheraton Yogjakarta, saya di tanya oleh Mantan Perdana Menteri Timor Leste Dr. Mari Al Katiri, tentang kemungkinan Din Syamsuddin, jawaban saya adalah kemungkinan itu sangat besar, bahkan hanya dialah yang " terbaik untuk Muhamadiyah" saat ini. Tentang ketidak hadiran Presiden SBY pada acara pembukaan Muktamar, saya sampaikan bahwa memang secara pisik beliau berhalangan hadir, karena bertepatan dengan acara beliau di luar negeri, dilanjutkan dengan Umroh yang sudah lama di niatkan, dan sama sekali tidak ada hal negatif antara Presiden dan Din Syamsuddin seperti yang banyak dikatakan khalayak.

Bagi kami di ICDL Indonesia, kehadiran Presiden melalui teleconference atau online attendance saat pembukaan Muktamar Muhamadiyah tersebut, adalah sesuatu yang amat berharga bagi peningkatan kesadaran Information and Communication Technology. ICDL Indonesia saangat berharap bahwa Ketua Umum Muhamadiyah akan memberikan perhatian lebih terhadap pendidikan ICT di sekolah sekolah Muhamadiyah di seluruh Indonesia, dan ICDL Indonesia akan dengan senang hati membantu. Bravo Presiden dan Selamat berjuang Ketua Umum, semoga ALLAH SWT selalu memberikan kesehatan kepada Anda sekalian.(MYR Agung Sidayu, Chairman ICDL Indonesia)
