An industry group asked the Senate and the House of Representatives to pass an enabling law that will support the Department of Trade and Industry’s national strategy to develop the local halal industry.
Sen. Robinhood Padilla called on government agencies, including the Department of Trade and Industry and National Commission on Muslim Filipinos to clarify the role of agencies in the certification of Halal food products. Halal is an Islamic concept that connotes that a product or service is free of impurities and can be consumed by Muslims.
DTI Secretary Alfredo Pascual said the Philippines seeks to expand its participation in the halal economy by being more active in the multitrillion US-dollar industry that is growing at a rapid pace.
