MIRI - Mega Hotel here is the first hotel in Miri to have obtained the Halal certification from Sarawak Islamic Council (JAIS) after the expiry of certification from the National Islamic Council (JAKIM).
JAIS certification which is also sanctioned overseas, especially in Muslim nations, is currently the most applicable for domestic establishment while JAKIM is widely used for export certification and international level trade and industries.
Datuk Daud Abdul Rahman, Assistant Minister in the Chief Minister's Department in charge of Islamic Affairs presented the certificate at a ceremony on Sunday night to Mr Ting Ong Hua, Mega Hotel chairman.
Mega Hotel is the 85th halal outlet certified by JAIS so far in Sarawak.
Daud said throughout the course of applying the Halal certification which may take months, an establishment has to undergo a very stringent procedure check, modification, classes, compliance to regulations and requirement of the religious order.
