        "summary": "Indonesia's Minister of Industry has highlighted the significant opportunity for domestic manufacturers to expand into global halal markets, which are valued at over US$3 trillion annually. The Ministry of Industry will accelerate halal certification processes and provide support to small and medium-sized enterprises, positioning Indonesia as a potential leader in the global halal supply chain whilst boosting domestic economic growth.",
        "content": "<p>Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita stated that\nentrepreneurs have the opportunity to expand access to global markets,\nparticularly in countries with predominantly Muslim populations, by\nobtaining halal certification. \u201cHalal certification not only provides\nlegal certainty for Muslim consumers, but also guarantees product\nquality, raw material safety, and transparency in production processes,\u201d\nhe said in a written statement on Wednesday, 11 March 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Based on data compiled by the Ministry of Industry, the potential\nvalue of global halal market transactions could exceed US$3 trillion per\nyear. However, intra-trade among member states of the Organisation of\nIslamic Cooperation (OIC) remains relatively low, creating a gap between\nimport requirements and the export potential of halal products.<\/p>\n<p>According to Agus, this situation presents a significant opportunity\nfor Indonesia to expand its share of the global halal product market. He\nexpressed confidence that with the strength of Indonesia\u2019s manufacturing\nsector and substantial support from natural resources and human capital,\nIndonesia has the potential to become a major player in the global halal\nsupply chain.<\/p>\n<p>Agus stated that the halal industry no longer serves merely to supply\nthe religious needs of communities. Beyond this, the Golkar politician\nsaid the halal industry opens high-value economic opportunities and is\ncapable of contributing significantly to the growth of manufacturing\nindustries and the national economy.<\/p>\n<p>Agus noted that public awareness of halal products is no longer\nsolely related to religious compliance. Rather, halal products are\nincreasingly associated with quality assurance and product safety\nguarantees.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that halal products are considered to have more\ntransparent production processes, higher hygiene standards, and provide\nbetter consumer protection.<\/p>\n<p>The Ministry of Industry will continue to encourage domestic industry\nplayers, particularly the small and medium-sized enterprise (SME)\nsector, to proactively obtain halal certification. This is because halal\ncertification is believed to enhance the competitiveness of domestic\nindustrial products in both domestic and global markets.<\/p>\n<p>Agus stated that the Ministry of Industry will also accelerate the\nhalal certification process through various coaching and facilitation\nprogrammes for industry players to meet applicable halal standards.<\/p>",
