NOVEMBER 19 — Boiled, roasted or fried meat – we serve them all in Kazakhstan. More importantly, for the country’s 70 per cent Muslim population, they must be prepared halal.
But for our halal industry to achieve long-term success, two things must happen. First, we will need to regulate the sector to ensure a quality ecosystem that can attract more investments. Second, we need to recognise the growth areas in the halal sector and work with other countries to tap on the opportunities in this expanding market.Up until 2014, independent certification institutions in Kazakhstan followed their own definition of halal when giving out halal food labels to companies.
In a time when Kazakhs are increasingly interested in sustainability, a central body will be more informative about food sources, to allow them to make better choices. In 2017, we invited Malaysian experts to assess our halal industry and provide recommendations for further improvements. A year later, we were accredited by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia, which allowed us to freely export our products to 49 countries worldwide under the label “SAMK halal.”
Before the global Covid-19 outbreak, Kazakhstan’s flag carrier, Air Astana, ran visa-free direct flights between Kuala Lumpur and Almaty thrice a week. In fact, the Astana International Finance Centre in Kazakhstan, which aims to enhance local and regional financial service growth and development, pays special attention to Islamic finance.
