The government’s initiative to help MSMEs obtain halal certification easily and free of charge through a halal certification assistance program has not been fully supported by adequate awareness among the MSME actors themselves. Therefore, the Faculty of Economics and Business, Tanjungpura University (UNTAN), held a Workshop on Assistance and Capacity Building for MSME Actors to help them register their products with authorized halal certification bodies. This activity was carried out in collaboration with Salimah PC Singkawang and MD KOHATI Singkawang.
It is hoped that more MSMEs will obtain the MUI halal certificate, as MSMEs play a significant role in the economy and contribute to enhancing competitiveness. After participating in this workshop, it is expected that MSMEs will be able to register their halal products independently through the self-declare system.
