Mr. Irham has also stated that this philosophical approach to the new labeling system is in line with the underlying purposes of Indonesia’s halal product guarantee, specifically to ensure comfort, security, safety and certainty as regards the availability, consumption and use of halal products by the general public.
BPJPH Secretary, Muhammad Arfi Hatim, has further affirmed that the Halal Indonesia label will apply on a national basis and will signify that products have been guaranteed halal and are covered by halal certification issued by the BPJPH. In this regard, Halal Indonesia labels must be prominently displayed on product packaging and in certain parts of and/or certain places on products.
Mr. Hatim went on to state that the Halal Indonesia label comprises two specific components: a logogram and a logotype. The logogram takes the form of a mountain and a surjan motif.
