TEMERLOH: The Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim) has been urged to introduce a halal logo that distinguishes between food products made by Islamic and non-Islamic companies.
This was one of five motions accepted without debate at Pas' 70th Muktamar here, announced by its information chief, Ahmad Fadhli Shaari, today.
According to Parit Pas division, which put forward the motion, such a halal logo will help Muslims in the country avoid ongoing dilemmas and doubts regarding the halal status of food products sold in Malaysia.
