Ketua Panitia, Dr Sucipto mengatakan, UB sejak dulu sampai sekarang aktif menyoroti perkembangan industri halal di Indonesia. Masalahnya, perkembangan industri halal di Indonesaia jauh tertinggal dibandigkan negara tetangga, Thailand dan Malaysia.
“Mereka paham sekali bahwa Indonesia ini mayoritas muslim. Muslim di negara mereka juga lumayan pesat, makanya mereka menyasar Indonesia sebagai target industri halal lho,” katanya beberapa menit lalu.
Oleh karena itu, menurutnya, perguruan tinggi perlu bergegas mengejar ketertinggalan dan mengajak pemerintah bekerja sama.
“Memang mengurus sertifikat halal itu butuh biaya dan prosesnya cukup panjang. Tapi yang kami tekankan adalah bagaimana caranya para pelaku usaha bisa menyadari pentingnya sertifikat halal, sehingga sesulit apapun prosesnya mereka tidak mempermasalahkan itu,” tutupnya.

Chairman of the Committee, Dr. Sucipto said, UB has always been actively highlighting the development of halal industry in Indonesia. The problem is, the development of halal industry in Indonesia is lagging far behind neighboring countries, Thailand and Malaysia.
“They understand very well that Indonesia is Muslim majority. Muslims in their country is also pretty fast, so they target Indonesia as a target of halal industry you know, “he said a few minutes ago.
Therefore, according to him, universities need to rush to catch up and invite the government to cooperate.
“Indeed, the halal certificate costs and the process is quite long. But what we emphasize is how do business actors can realize the importance of halal certification, so as difficult as any process they do not question it, “he concluded.
