Meanwhile, Chairman of Jakarta’s Sharia Economic Community (locally known as MES) Tito Maulana in his speech stated that the Halal Fair was a form of MES’ commitment to collaborating with Wahyu Citra Promo as the organizer of the event, to develop the halal industry in Indonesia.

“The halal industry in Indonesia has built a strong foundation for national economic growth. The potential and opportunities for the halal industry are very large, but it also faces many challenges,” he said.

Tito further said, in the field of the halal tourism industry, Indonesia was ranked first as the best halal tourist destination in the world by the Global Muslim Travel Index (GMTI) together with Malaysia.

The halal industry is expected to be  the most important part of the national strategy in the future, said Tito, while hoping that all presidential and vice presidential candidates in the 2024 elections would support sharia economic programs.
