00:00Former Minister Rafida Aziz has called the ongoing debate over mandatory halal certification
00:09unnecessary. In a social media post, she said the controversy is diverting society's attention
00:15from more pressing matters. She said the government should focus on combating corruption
00:21instead, which she believed was a source of non-halal money. Rafida stressed that Muslims
00:27who are steadfast in adhering to Islam's tenets do not need any entity to tell them what they
00:32can consume. She said Muslims should not burden others simply because they need to be protected
00:39from un-Islamic food. Last Thursday, Religious Affairs Minister Naim Mokhtar said JAKIM is
00:45considering making halal certification mandatory for all food establishments that do not serve
00:50pork and alcohol. Sam Wichwa, FMT News
