The Malaysian government will strengthen the ‘One Village One Product’ programme by producing more materials including ingredients for halal products to meet increasing global demand for such products. Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said micro, small and medium entrepreneurs (MSME) at the village level should capitalise on this to explore more market opportunities overseas, including in Japan. Therefore, Ahmad Zahid, who is also Malaysia Halal Industry Development Council chairman, said the production of ingredients including for halal products under the programme would be integrated. “It (One Village One Product Programme) is already there but I am proposing that it be integrated because just one village is not sufficient (to produce products or ingredients). Maybe 50 to 100 villages should combine to produce the same product. “Not necessarily end products but ingredients too would be helpful because the demand is high and we should seize this opportunity
