Why is Melamine added in milk powder
Adding Melamine in milk reduces milk content and it is cheaper then milk so it lowers capitalization.

Melamin: Larangan import agen penaik 'ammonium bicarbonate' China
PUTRAJAYA: Kerajaan hari ini melarang serta-merta pengimportan agen penaik 'ammonium bicarbonate' dari China berikutan bahan itu didapati mempunyai tahap melamin melebihi piawaian dibenarkan. Menteri Kesihatan, Datuk Liow Tiong Lai, berkata bahan penaik itu yang diimport dari negara lain pula diletakkan di bawah pemeriksaan rapi sebelum dibenar masuk ke pasaran tempatan. Beliau berkata tindakan larangan itu diambil apabila analisis yang dilakukan terhadap sampel produk dua kilang biskut tempatan, Khong Guan di Johor dan Khian Guan di Pulau Pinang mendapati 18 daripada 47 sampel biskut yang dianalisis melebihi tahap melamin yang dibenarkan iaitu 2.5 mg/kg atau 2.5 ppm.
“Hasil analisis menunjukkan hanya agen penaik ’ammonium bicarbonate’ mengandungi paras melamin yang tinggi iaitu 33.4 ppm bagi kilang biskut jenama Khong Guan dan 508 ppm bagi kilang biskut jenama Khian Guan, dan sumber ’ammonium bicarbonate’ bagi kedua-dua kilang biskut itu adalah dari negara China,” katanya kepada pemberita di sini hari ini. Serentak itu, Liow berkata kementerian telah mengarahkan 12 biskut jenama Khong Guan iaitu Biskut Soda, Biskut Lemon Puff, Biskut Lemon Pof, Biskut Butter Cream, Biskut Baby Fish, Biskut Healthy Cracker, Biskut Cocoa Puff, Biskut Sandwich Oren, Biskut Family Crackers, Biskut Bentuk Binatang, Biskut Gulung dan Biskut Mini Puff ditarik balik dari pasaran. Enam biskut berjenama Khian Guan iaitu Biskut Creamy Chocolate, Biskut Lemon Puff, Biskut Square Puff, Biskut Cocoa Puff, Biskut Jagung Puff dan Biskut Campuran (Party) turut menghadapi tindakan yang sama, dan kementerian akan memantau dan memusnahkan mana-mana biskut itu jika masih berada di pasaran, katanya.
“Kami juga meminta mereka (Khong Guan dan Khian Guan) untuk menarik balik produk mereka yang lain secara sukarela sehingga ia mendapat kebenaran dari kementerian, dan mereka memberi kerjasama yang baik,” katanya. Liow berkata kementerian sedang mengenal pasti pengimport, pengedar dan pembekal ’ammonium bicarbonate’ dari negara China, selain menjalankan pemeriksaan terhadap kilang biskut di seluruh negara dan jika terdapat ’ammonium bicarbonate’ dari negara China digunakan, ’ammonium bicarbonate’ dan biskut berkenaan akan disita dan sampel akan diambil bagi tujuan analisis. Mengenai laporan CBC News semalam bahawa ’Julie’s Crackers’ yang diimport dari Malaysia dikesan mengandungi melamin melebihi tahap yang dibenarkan dan telah ditarik balik dari pasaran Taiwan, Liow berkata kementerian sedang menyiasat perkara itu. Berkaitan laporan akhbar tempatan hari ini yang melaporkan bahawa susu pekat tawar jenama ’Mali’ yang dikeluarkan syarikat Thailand mengandungi paras melamin yang tinggi, Liow berkata kementerian sedang mendapatkan maklumat lanjut daripada pihak berkuasa Thailand mengenai hal berkaitan.
“Kita nak pastikan bahawa produk ini masuk ke negara ini atau tidak, dan jika ya kita akan arahkan larangan untuk pastikan ia tidak masuk ke pasaran tempatan,” katanya. Sementara itu Liow berkata, 14 lagi sampel produk makanan yang dianalisis kementerian didapati mematuhi piawaian melamin yang ditetapkan, menjadikan keseluruhan jumlah produk yang diisytihar bebas melamin sehingga kini ialah 138. Produk itu ialah Amoy Flour Vermicilli (Shun Shun Fuk), Animal Biscuits Chocolate Cream Certified (ZQ), Coconut Biscuits (Bairong), Creamy Peanut Butter (Lady’s Choice), Creamy Peanut Butter (Skippy), Crunchy Peanut Butter (Kinus), Durian Cream Biscuits (Sanwa), Magic Chew Candy (Cap Layang), Marsh Mellow Blueberry Flavour Candy (Ego), Marsh Mellow Grape Jam Candy (Ego), Magnum Mini Classic Vanilla Flavoured Ice Cream With Chocolate Coated (WALL’s), Peanut Butter & Chocolate Rice Crisp (Lady’s Choice), Peanut Butter & Strawberry Flavoured Stripes (Lady’s Choice) dan Sesame Paste Cookies (C7OK), katanya. Liow berkata kementerian juga sedang cuba meningkatkan keupayaan makmal supaya sebarang analisa dapat dibuat dengan lebih pantas, termasuk peningkatan dari segi jumlah makmal, jumlah pekerja dan peralatan. Pada masa ini kementerian mempunyai 14 makmal di seluruh negara, dan usaha penambahbaikan sedang dijalankan supaya analisis produk makanan, sepertimana yang dilakukan berkaitan kes pencemaran melamin ini dapat dibuat dengan lebih intensif, katanya. - Bernama

UK: School considers halal only menu
PUPILS at a primary school could be offered menus with halal as the only meat option, a local councillor said.
Dale Primary School in Derby is consulting parents about whether they would want to see the traditional Muslim meat offered on school menus, it was reported today.
One option being considered is to have one day a week where the meat option is solely halal, the city council's portfolio holder for children and young people said.

Is Kosher halal? the question form Muslim consumers
Often times Muslim consumers tend to assume 'Kosher' is similar to 'Halal'. Although the slaughtering rituals of Jewish people resemble those of Muslims; kosher and halal are two different entities carrying a different meaning and spirit. Muslims, therefore, are provided with the following basic information about Kosher so they can exercise care in distinguishing halal from kosher.
Kashrut (in Hebrew) is the system of Jewish dietary laws. Kosher (kashur in Hebrew) means 'fit, or proper for use' according to Jewish law. Examples of kosher are: the meat of the 'fore quarter*' of the cattle slaughtered ritually, fruits, vegetables, all fish that have fins*, all wines*, all cheeses*, gelatin*.
The opposite of Kosher, as applied to food in Treif (in Yiddish), or trefah (in Hebrew) meaning 'not suitable for use', or 'forbidden'. Trefah literally means 'torn by a wild beast' (Exodus 22:30). Examples of Trefah are: blood, swine, rabbit*, all shell fish*, wild birds such as wild hen*, wild duck*, and the birds of prey.
(*) These food items exhibit a marked difference between kosher and Halal as well as trefah and haram. The differences are explained elsewhere in this section.
Caution to Muslim Consumers:
Halal is a comprehensive Islamic term encompassing not only the matters of food and drink, but all other matters of daily life. Islam being the final and perfect way of life for humanity, it supersedes all the previously revealed religions including Christianity and Judaism. The rituals in all matters were perfected by God (al-Quran 5:3)
According to Islamic Jurisprudence, no one except God can change forbidden (Haram) things into lawful (halal) for vice-versa. It is forbidden for people to change the lawful (Halal) things into unlawful (Haram), or vice-versa.
Halal is a unique Islamic concept and eating zabiha (Islamically slaughtered) meat is a distinguishing part of a Muslim's identity as expressed by Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him.
Salient differences between kosher and halal are: Islam prohibits all intoxicating alcohols, liquors, wines and drugs. kashrut regards all wines kosher. Hence food items and drinks showing the kosher symbol containing alcohol are not halal. Gelatin is considered Kosher by many Jews regardless of its source of origin. If the gelatin is prepared from non-zabiha, Muslims consider it haram (prohibited). Hence foods items such as marshmallows, yogurt, etc., showing kosher symbols are not always halal. Enzymes (irrespective of their sources even from non-kosher animals) in cheese making are considered mere secretion(pirsah b'almah) according to some kashrut organizations, hence all cheeses are considered kosher. Muslims look for the source of the enzyme in cheese making. If it is coming from the swine, it is considered haram(forbidden). Hence cheeses showing kosher symbols may not be halal. |
Jews do not pronounce the name of God on each animal while slaughtering. They feel that uttering the name of God, out of context, is wasteful. Muslims on the other hand pronounce the name of Allah on all animals while slaughtering.
The salient differences between kosher and halal have been illustrated so that Muslim consumers can distinguish halal from kosher.
Muslims in non-Muslim countries should strive to follow the Islamic injunctions in their diet (as well as in every walk of life) and establish their own businesses and institutions to cater to the needs of the Muslim Ummah. By doing so, not only the identity of the Muslims will be preserved, but they will be recognized and respected for their beliefs and practices.
Differences within Kosher:
There are different sects within Judaism and there are several hundred Jewish Kosher authorities in the US who certify Kosher based on extremely liberal to extremely conservative rules. Therefore it is difficult to come up with one uniform opinion regarding Kosher practices. A symbols "k" for kosher is not governed by any authority. Any manufacturer can use it at will. A website guiding Jews about Kosher states "it may take a great deal of detective work to ascertain the standard that a particular rabbi is using." For this reason many Muslims when buying anything kosher look for "u" in a circle which are more conservative Kosher symbol.

Halal Assurance System
1. Standard of halal management and halal system. Halal management is managing of all the function and activities necessary to able to achieve the objective of halal products. Halal system is defined as the organisational structure, responsibilities, procedures, activities, capabilities and resources that together aim to ensure that products, processes or service will satisfy stated or implied aims, i.e., production of halal products.
2.1 Determine the conformity of halal system elements with specified requirements.
2.2 Determine the effectiveness of the implemented halal system in meeting specified objectives.
2.3 Verify that non-conformities identified in a previous audit have been rectified as agreed.
3.1 Identify and assess all haram and najees materials.
3.2 Identify the critical control points.
3.3 Establish the monitoring procedures.
3.4 Establish corrective actions.
3.5 Establish a record-keeping system.
3.6 Establish verification procedures.
4. Halal guideline. This consists of general regulation of halal foods and standards procedures of production of halal foods. In addition, specific regulation and procedures may be added, for example, in the case of food additive production.
To ensure that the industry has met the halal requirements in producing halal foods, especially those that would like to put a halal logo in its packaging, the industry must ask help from a reliance and acceptable halal officially recognised certifying organisation. The halal officially recognised certifying organisation ( eg. Jakim )will then audit and certify its products, raw materials, additives, production facilities, administration and management. Once the industry has got a halal officially recognised certificate for its malaysia halal products, it can be used as a formal basis for applying a halal logo. This halal officially recognised certificate can also be used to declare that the malaysia halal product are halal and hence the malaysia halal products can be imported to Muslim countries or sold to Muslim consumers.
