Penang to embark on Middle East investment mission by Regina William
PENANG: The state government will embark on an investment mission to Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain to attract investors for the International Halal Hub which is being mooted in Penang. Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said there were many interested parties from the Middle East who had voiced their intention to invest in the Halal Hub and the mission would be led by consumer affairs committee chairman Abdul Malek Abul Kassim. Lim said a halal park had been planned at the Batu Kawan industrial estate while an area in Balik Pulau was also being identified for the promotion of international health tourism based on a halal concept. “We initiated this during the World Halal Forum 2008 which was held in Kuala Lumpur in May after discussions with Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Zaid Hamidi, including the setting up of the International Halal Industry Development Corporation Sdn Bhd office in Penang soon. “Penang, which is a brown field, is ideal to be developed as an international halal hub as we possess the 10 main thrusts necessary for this industry — manufacturing, packaging, marketing, logistics, Islamic finance, warehousing, halal certification, skills training, research and development and human resources.
“We will explore the markets not only in northern Malaysia but also in the neighbouring regions. We can emerge as the main suppliers for halal products to countries in Asia, Middle east, Europe and also America,” Lim added. He added that Penang could also serve as the feeder port for these products which were processed in the Indonesia Malaysia Thailand Growth Triangle. Lim also welcomed the announcement by Indonesian carrier Sriwijaya which will be starting daily flights from Penang to Medan from September 15. The airline had announced that it would extend the flights to Hatyai in Thailand and Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam from Penang. Lim said such a move augured well for the tourism industry especially with Penang’s listing as a Unesco world Heritage site and urged other airlines to follow suit. Meanwhile, Malek said a taskforce represented by the Halal Penang, Halal Logistik, Penang Joint Chambers Corporation, small and medium industries and entreprises, MATTA and Penang Tourism Corporation, Invest in Penang Berhad and the International Halal Industry Development Corpration would be set up soon. He said existing halal products producers, halal services and halal logistics would be registered while those interested to participate in the industry would also be encouraged.
In the research and development for halal products, Malek said the state government would work with Universiti Sains Malaysia to set up a halal R&D centre for the state. He said in the meantime, the state government would have ties with the Chulalongkorn University in Thailand which already has a well established R & D centre for halal products.
