Malaysia has called for stronger international cooperation to help grow the global halal economy, according to Anadolu Agency.
The country's deputy premier urged closer collaboration among nations and greater market access as the halal sector, which spans food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other industries, continues to expand worldwide.
Malaysia has positioned itself as a leading hub for halal certification and trade, and officials have repeatedly emphasized the economic opportunities the sector presents for Muslim-majority and non-Muslim-majority countries alike.
Greater market access and harmonized standards across countries are seen by industry advocates as key to unlocking further growth in the sector, which has drawn increasing interest from investors and exporters targeting global halal consumer demand.
Specific new initiatives or agreements were not detailed in the report.
