The main presentation during the session focussed on the process of applying for Halal certification for restaurants and food factories; Halal accreditation for overseas slaughter centres; importation of Halal meat to Brunei Darussalam; and Halal certification and slaughtering certification for local slaughter houses. It was delivered by Awang Haji Mohd Hadilah bin Haji Abdul Manaf, Scientific Officer at the Halal Food Control Division (BKMH), Ministry of Religious Affairs.

This was followed by a question-and-answer session with Awang Haji Mohd Hadilah, where attendees of the session made several inquiries and shared their views on certain issues faced by the Halal industry. Apart from members of the public, the audience also included business operators from the food and beverage sector.

The dialogue session served as a platform for those running Halal-related businesses to share their experiences and those interested in knowing more about the regulations related to the Halal industry as well as prospective entrepreneurs to meet with successful players in the industry.
