I am pleased to extend an invitation for you to attend the first of a series of seminars and workshops on the PREPARATION AND HANDLING OF HALAL FOOD on September 17, Monday, 2012, 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., Marlim Mansions Hotel, Diamond Subd., Balibago, Angeles City.
According to the general guidelines prepared by the ASEAN Cooperation in Food, Agriculture and Forestry, Halal (lawful) food or Muslim Food is food or its ingredients that do not contain any components or products of animals that are unlawful as food to Muslim by Shariah Law or of lawful animals which are not slaughtered according to Shariah Law.”
The aim of the seminar is to better equip our tourism stakeholders in the food service and hospitality industry with the basic working knowledge on the general guidelines in the preparation and handling of halal food and at the same time prepare the industry for an anticipated exponential increase in visitor arrivals from generally muslim countries like Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and the Middle East via Clark international airport. Also, the tourism department is taking part in the national effort to develop the halal industry as a potential growth area for development due to the increasing presence of Muslim – Filipinos in this part of the region.
Our guest speaker, Mr. Adam Idrus Bunajos, a muslim chef/cook and restaurant operations manager from Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia, has been kind enough to volunteer his services and expertise by providing us some basic guidelines on the subject at hand.
A registration fee of P400 per participant will be required to cover the cost of an early lunch plus certificate of attendance. Handouts will be sent thru email.
This project is jointly sponsored by the Hotel and Restaurants in Pampanga (HARP) led by its President Ms. Susan Manansala of Euroasia Hotel and the Angeles City Tourism Office led by the City Tourism Officer Ms. Christine Nunag.
