JAKARTA - The Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) also supports post-pandemic economic recovery policies in the country through the implementation of the sharia economy.
In Indonesia, the Islamic economy is known to continue to experience growth.
"The Ministry of Industry supports the sharia economy by implementing Law Number 33 of 2014, namely the obligation of halal certification for products circulating in Indonesia by establishing a Halal Examination Institute (LPH)," said Head of the Standardization and Industrial Services Policy Agency (BSKJI), Doddy Rahadi in Jakarta, Thursday, December 15.
Doddy said the work unit (satker) under the Ministry of Industry's BSKJI, namely the Center for Standardization and Services for the Skin, Karet, and Plastic Industry (BBSPJIKKP) played a role in efforts to implement the sharia economy in Indonesia.
The satker, which is located in Yogyakarta, has been accredited by the Ministry of Religion's Halal Product Guarantee Agency (BPJPH).
"The scope of the BBSPJIKKP LPH covers food and beverages, chemical products, and utilization items. The BBSPJIKKP LPH is supported by five halal auditors with competencies according to their scope," said Doddy.
Doddy explained that LPH BBSPJIKKP had collaborated with the Yogyakarta Cooperatives and SMEs Office to conduct a halal audit or examination of 50 MSMEs in the city.
"Automatically, the halal audit activity must be carried out by the BBSPJIKKP LPH this year," he added.
For your information, the Yogyakarta Cooperatives and SMEs Service has held a Bimtek Halal Certification on November 24-25, 2022 for MSME actors who will be facilitated by halal certification.
Bimtek participants are MSME players engaged in food and/or beverage, such as gudeg stalls, meatballs, various processed chicken (crispy, geprek, kremes, abon, dimsum), gongso semarangan, rendang, catering, and other processed food/drinking.
