KUALA LUMPUR: The claim that Malaysia will immediately recognise halal certification s issued by the United States ' halal certification bodies is baseless and does not reflect the actual terms agreed upon during recent trade discussions, says Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz.
“The government remains uncompromising in maintaining syariah-compliant standards to safeguard the interests of Muslim consumers in Malaysia,” he told the Dewan Rakyat on Monday . He also outlined other key areas of agreement between Malaysia and the United States, including streamlining the certification and registration process for facilities exporting dairy, meat and poultry products to Malaysia according to domestic regulations.
Tengku Zafrul said both nations have also committed to strengthening enforcement in areas such as intellectual property rights, labour, environmental protection and sustainable fisheries management, based on Malaysia’s obligations under relevant international organisations.
