8. Global Market Economy on Halal
Products
Halal Food Hub
The global market value for halal food is estimated at
about US$547 billion a year. Recognizing this, many
countries are undertaking various initiatives to capitalize
on the growth potential. Malaysia, as a Muslim nation,
has the edge and is well positioned to be the hub for the
promotion, distribution and production of halal food and
non-food products. As the Malaysian Government is
focusing on increasing food production in the country as
well as making Malaysia an international halal hub, food-
processing companies can leverage on Malaysia’s
strength in halal certification and Government’s
promotional efforts to capture the halal market overseas.

9. Global Market Economy on Halal
Products
In the Ninth Malaysia Plan, Malaysia will be developed as
a center for the certification of halal products and the
Department of Islamic Development, Malaysia (JAKIM)
certification will be promoted worldwide.
In addition, Malaysia will be positioning herself as the
reference center for trade and investment promotion of
halal products and services by designating Malaysia
International Halal Showcase (MIHAS) and the World
Halal Forum (WHF) as the international annual platforms
for halal trade and create opportunities for strategic
collaboration and alliances. Recognizing the potential of
the halal industry, the Government has established the
Halal industry development Corporation (HDC), as a body
to coordinate the overall development of the industry.

10. Global Market Economy on Halal
Products
Food Niche markets – Opportunities
Currently, the key areas for growth and development in
the food processing industry in Malaysia are functional
food, convenience food, food ingredients and halal
food.
Convenience Food
With changing lifestyle, convenience foods continued to
be the trend. In Malaysia, food manufacturers are
introducing new convenience foods with Asian recipes to
meet the additional interest in ethnic food. Convenience
foods produced in Malaysia are in the form of chilled and
frozen, home-meal replacements, ready-to-cook, ready-
to-eat and ready-to-drink meal.

11. Promoting Malaysian Heritage Food
to The World
Special Heritage Food
The National Heritage Department would step up
promotions of local food overseas to attract tourist to
the country. Some 500 local dishes listed under the
national heritage had been picked for promotions
abroad.
Cendol is one of the local dishes listed. G&G Dessert
Products Sdn Bhd (G&G), a local company base in Johor
has the expertise and knowledge in food industry been
manufacturing and marketing instant cendol ready to
drink called “ Cendolah”. It’s a cordial drink (pati asli
cendol) without the noodles and other accessories.
07/04/09 11
12. Promoting Malaysian Heritage Food
to The World
Special Heritage Food
We still maintain the characteristic taste and aroma of
the drink. A mixture of santan, gula melaka and daun
pandan is the key ingredients that leave a savory taste
in our mouth that has made them so popular in Malaysia
for generation.
By inventing Cendolah as an instant drink is an another
way to preserved the traditional way of cendol as one
of the special heritage food of Malaysia to the world.

13. Promoting Malaysian Heritage Food
to The World
Special Heritage Food
By modernizing and producing a quality product and
hygienic will definitely popularize Malaysia’s food
delights worldwide and create greater awareness and
acceptance about the country’s heritage, image and
revenue.
Cendolah will also provide with a heritage branding and
help to boost business and tourism, giving a special
“oomph” to Malaysian restaurants overseas.
Promoting Malaysia’s heritage food can indeed help
attract tourist just as they are drawn to visiting the
world’s heritage sites.
07/04/09 13
14. Outlook
There can certainly be predicted a growing demand for
premium food items, which is indicated by the increasing
living standards and purchasing power of the modern
Malaysian population. The food service segment is also
interesting from the supply perspective. Competition is
not so much about branding but more on price as the
supply factor is based on bulk purchase. Apart from
widespread fast food chains, coffee bars, wine bars and
Western style cafeterias offer a wide range of pastries,
confectionaries, and snacks, including Western food
menus for lunch and dinner.
In recent times there can be observed a trend towards
an organic sub-sector, which is expanding rapidly. As the
population is becoming more health-conscious due to
growing living standards and purchasing power, the
number of organic shops is expected to expand.
07/04/09 14
15. Outlook
Even though the higher living standard has increased
the demand for fast food a change in food consumption
is expected due to increased awareness and social
progress in the coming years.
Quality food products and low fat products will face a
higher demand because of the rapid increase in lifestyle
diseases, such as high blood pressure, heart problems
due to overweight and change in eating habits. In
Malaysia it is essential to be present in exhibitions in
order to promote food products. By this, we could
probably get the chance to meet the potential and right
contacts.

Special heritage tour for students
By SALINA KHALID
STUDENTS from 18 secondary schools in the remote areas had a chance to learn about
the country’s national heritage thanks to the National Heritage Department.
Its commissioner of heritage, Profesor Emeritus Datuk Zuraina Abdul Majid, said it was a
unique opportunity for the students.
“We brought them to stay in Kuala Lumpur and took them to visit the museums, national
monuments and other national heritage buildings in the capital city.
“Hopefully they will share the information with their friends and everyone in their village,”
said Zuraina.
She said the programme, which was started in 2007, involved schools located in remote
places such as Sabah and Pahang. She said these students would be starting a heritage
club, back in their school, where they would share the information they obtained during
the visit with their peers.
“We want them to know that whatever they read in the textbooks are for real,” added
Zuraina. She said the programme would be extended to other schools in the country this
year.
She was speaking at the media briefing on the activities of the National Heritage
Department held at the Menara TH Perdana in Jalan Sultan Ismail recently.
Zuraina said the department would step up promotions of local food overseas to attract
more tourists to the country. She said some 500 local dishes listed under the national
heritage had been picked for the promotion.
“All the listed food will be shown in the department’s website in Bahasa Malaysia and will
be translated to other languages later on,” she said.
She added that the department would be going to London to promote the programme
before bringing it to other destinations. She also encouraged local restaurants to help
dissiminate information about these dishes and help promote them.
