FAPA 2014 - Kota Kinabalu - Amrahi

• There is a greater emphasis on Halal pharmaceutical as the
Muslim market grows more affluent and demand rises –
replacing animal-based ingredients such as gelatin, enzymes
and emulsifiers with plant-based ingredients
• Malaysia is the ONLY country with standard Halal Pharma
guidelines
• Halal Pharma complied with MOH Guidelines, GMP and PICS.
• Global Halal supply is meeting only 3% of the global Halal
demand worth about USD82 billion
• Supporting ETP NKEA, National Medicines Policy; Reference
to Halal Pharmacopoeia & Alternative listing
