The Malaysian Chamber of Commerce recently said it firmly believes Halal products hold enormous business opportunities in the global market, and that the country's Halal entrepreneurs should actively export Halal products.

The chamber's Secretary-General Mohammad Sahar Mat Din said: "The world's 1.7 billion Muslims all need Halal products. Malaysia's Halal entrepreneurs should rise to the occasion, seize the opportunity, actively export, and make their companies internationally renowned." He called on entrepreneurs to embrace the challenge and build a sustainable Halal business alliance to help establish and grow the Halal product supply chain.

After the chamber's annual general meeting, Mohammad Sahar told reporters that the Halal hub established in Padang Besar takes into account its strategic position in the Indonesia-Malaysia-Thailand Growth Triangle, while also being part of the Northern Corridor Economic Region. Padang Besar is the last stop of the Malaysian railway heading to Thailand, located on the northeastern border of Perlis, and is one of the important land ports between Thailand and Malaysia; the international express to Bangkok departs from here for Thailand.

Mohammad Sahar called on Halal entrepreneurs not to be bystanders in Perlis, but to actively engage in the great development right before their eyes.

SINOQUAL's comment: We hope China's food entrepreneurs can also seize the opportunity and catch the same train, letting their products rise in the Halal market.
