SINGAPORE: 20 eating establishments have received their halal certificates under the new Singapore MUIS Halal Quality Management System or HalMQ.

The system was introduced last month by the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore or MUIS for eating establishments applying for a halal certificate.

Hei Sushi is among the first in Singapore to use HalMQ and according to them, the new system is easy to use.

Under HalMQ, certificate holders must adhere to stringent measures such as food preparation and proper documentation of all processes.

Establishments must also have a proper monitoring system at various stages. This way, immediate actions can be taken in the event of a contamination.

Many establishments said that the new system has helped them improve their productivity and the quality of food produced. - CNA/vm
