halal is a requirement for muslims which means that halal food
is fit for consumption under islamic law.
in singapore muslims are a minority. but alot of food have halal
certificate to ensure that the food is fit for consumption by
muslims.
manufacturers hire halal certifiers to certify their products so
that they can sell to muslim consumer, in other words manufactures
pay halal certifiers to inspect their production to ensure that
there is no "haram" substance. after inspection halal certifiers
label the products halal. manufacturers do this to make sure that
they expand their consumer market to include muslims.
or are manufacturers compulsory required by the singapore
government to ensure that all non-pork products are halal?
if every single non-pork products manufacterers pay halal
certifiers to get the halal certificate where does the money go
to?
why must the products be halal certified so that muslims can
consume when non-muslims are the majority?
do non-mulims pay the tax for halal certification?
