Hello everybody,


First of all,thanks for viewing.I'm in the midst of opening a chicken rice shop in Klang valley and I'm a Chinese.My shop will sell hainan chicken rice and some side dishes.Actually our menu is pork free but I know it's not consider as Halal until we get the certification.

I checked with halal.gov.my website for information but not much are useful.One of the information I got is that I must have at least 2 Muslim workers in the kitchen as one of the rules and regulation.

So here I'm looking for more information and hopefully someone with experience in this can share more detailed information.

Many thanks in advance.Cheers!

Hi Kenji,

or perhaps,,u should go to his restaurant for fast advice..huu~

Chicken Rice Shop owner is a chinese. Caters mainly for HALAL customers. No?

suggest TS get a consultant while the process of getting halal cert. it's not an easy task.

my wife' company has a team of 5 members working for the Halal cert for their new factory

PS. you need a few muslim worker working for you to get Halal cert .

if you got a muslim partner , sleeping or not . It would be easier to get it .

Dear Ryan,

I applaud yr effort in getting Halal certificate. FYI, Halal is not just about pork-free as it touches into a very wide area of cleanliness, non-alcoholic serving, proper slaughtering and so on.

As a first step, you might want to visit Jakim website to get more insight on how to obtain the certificate. Here's an excerpt taken from their FAQ. Hope its help.

Ya,got some information from JAKIM website.Previously I only searched Halal.gov.my. Thanks!


Thanks!Hopefully it wont be as hard as I imagine.


I been there for a few times and the last was last Friday only.Hehe.Their foods is nice!


Ya someone PM-ed me with a consultant contact number earlier today.Hopefully the consultant will be able to help me.Thanks!

No muslim partner at the moment

Ya I just checked the website but most of the feedback I got is it will be a tough job if I were to do it on my own since I'm non-muslim.So I think I will find a few consultants and see what are their advices and what they can do for me.Thanks a lot bro!

hmm..perhaps i can be ur partner?

Just get a sleeping partner , pay him some money but he don't have to work for you . Just for papers only

But of cos have to put in the agreement that you own the company .

just to correct you TS, yout topic title should be "..restaurant is owned by Non-muslim" not 'non-Malay'..

Islam is not the exclusive right of Malay..only the idiots malay in malaysia thinks so..

it is good actually for you to get the halal certificate..for your info, the status of halal food and it's requirments is sort of an I.S.O for our food..just make sure that the foods and ingredients are halal and toiyib (good and healthy)..

Do you have the Jessica Alba body?Hahaha jk bro


Ya I just found someone who can help me on this sleeping partner matter in case I really need it.Thanks!


Ahh..thanks for the correction bro!I just corrected it and I really like the way you commented about the Malay in Malaysia.haha..
I see..I do really like to get the Halal cert as I also think that there's a lot of benefits in terms of the market I can target and etc.

To TS, nice effort bro. At least, we muslim (not just malay ) can happily eat at your shop after you get the halal cert. And hope you can provide a nice and clean food for us. Good luck!
