JAKIM Collaborates With KPDN To Monitor Halal Certificate Holders
PUTRAJAYA, May 30 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Islamic Development Department (JAKIM), in collaboration with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN), is actively working to monitor and enforce compliance among halal certificate holders nationwide, ensuring that businesses uphold halal standards according to established guidelines.
JAKIM Director-General Datuk Dr Sirajuddin Suhaimee said this was to ensure halal certificate holders comply fully with the conditions set under their certification.
'In terms of monitoring and enforcement, we at JAKIM are working closely with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) because the authority under the Trade Descriptions Act and the Trade Descriptions Order (Halal Definition) 2011 falls under itsr jurisdiction,' he told reporters after the JAKIM monthly assembly here today.
