The Islamic Development Bank (IDB) is interested in a project to introduce a new halal certification system in Kyrgyzstan, the Economy Ministry of Kyrgyzstan said.

吉尔吉斯斯坦伊经济部表示；伊斯兰开发银行（IDB）对在吉尔吉斯斯坦推出一个新的清真认证系统的项目很感兴趣。

The Center for Standardization and Metrology under the Ministry held a meeting with IDB expert Abdurakhman Dialy who announced the Bank’s intention to partly finance the project implementation.

国家标准计量中心与IDB银行的专家Abdurakhman Dialy进行会谈并宣布银行打算实施部分融资项目。

The IDB expert familiarized with the state of the halal industry in Kyrgyzstan and plans to introduce the halal certification system by the Economy Ministry together with the Spiritual Directorate of Muslims of Kyrgyzstan. Kyrgyzstan needs this certification system to enhance the export potential of the country.

IDB专家对吉尔吉斯斯坦的清真行业十分熟悉，并计划与经济部和吉尔吉斯斯坦穆斯林理事会一起推广清真认证体系。吉尔吉斯斯坦需要这一认证制度，以提高该国的出口潜力。

In recent years, more and more products have been sold under a halal label in Kyrgyzstan. At first it was applied to meat products only, but later eggs, starch noodles and even taxi services were sold as halal.

近年来，越来越多销往吉尔吉斯斯坦的产品都有清真认证标志。起初只是肉制品，后来鸡蛋、面条、甚至出租车服务都开始有清真的标志。

Experts doubt that such a broad use of the halal term can be justified, as it is rather a means to attract the attention of buyers and increase sales, given that a single private company issues halal certificates in the country.

专家认为，清真认证被广泛认可是可以理解的，它像是一种方式来吸引买家来增加销量。

For Muslims, Halal simply means permitted or lawful. So halal food means any food allowed to be eaten according to the Sharia law.

对于穆斯林来说，伊斯兰仅意味着允许或合法。所以，清真食品是指符合伊斯兰教法的任何可以吃的食物。

Halal certification means that food has been subjected to approved certification systems which guarantee consumers that the food has no forbidden components. Haram is the opposite of halal (forbidden). Food can be forbidden in Islam if it includes blood, alcohol, meat or any products from a forbidden animal, including pigs, carnivorous animals or birds of prey.

清真认证是指食品受到认可的认证系统，保障消费者的食品里没有含有被禁止的成分。Haram是指非清真的、被清真所禁止的。包括血液、酒精、肉或任何来自被禁止的动物的任何产品，包括猪、食肉动物或鸟类的猎物，在清真法规中是被严格禁止的。

The Economy Ministry developed a Halal industry development concept in the Kyrgyz Republic which was approved by the Government. The Ministry is the body that coordinates implementation of the Concept.

由吉尔吉斯斯坦共和国政府批准发展清真行业，该国的经济部负责协调实施。

The Concept aims to promote halal products both in domestic and foreign markets. The Concept is based on the implementation of green economy principles, a promising vector for Kyrgyzstan due to its natural conditions.

清真行业的发展是基于绿色经济发展原则的，旨在推动清真产品在该国的国内外市场，吉尔吉斯斯坦由于其自然条件非常有发展前途。

According to the Concept, 80 percent of Kyrgyzstan’s population is Muslim, and the demand for halal products in the food market is growing every year. However, there is no unified mechanism for the evaluation and certification of products as halal. Therefore, halal labeling currently does not guarantee compliance with sanitary norms and rules as well as regulations imposed by halal standards.

根据这一发展理念，由于吉尔吉斯斯坦百分之八十的人口是穆斯林，在食品市场上对清真产品的需求逐年增加，然而却一直没有一个统一确定的清真产品认证标准。因此，清真标识目前并不能保证卫生规范性以及清真标准实施法规的合规性。

The Concept pays primary attention to meat products, for which Islam has the most stringent requirements in terms of compliance with halal. More than five hundred enterprises are now processing meat in Kyrgyzstan, and 90 percent of them are low-power companies. Numerous mini-workshops do not comply with health standards and modern technological processes which is not safe for public health.

该发展理念注重肉类产品，为伊斯兰教在符合清真方面最严格的要求。在吉尔吉斯斯坦有超过500家肉类产品加工厂，其中90%的都是小型工厂。许多小型车间不符合卫生标准和现代的技术流程，对公共卫生产生了隐患。

The Concept also proposes selling beekeeping products under the halal brand because ideal climatic conditions of the country allow obtaining high quality and environmentally friendly mountain honey, which can be certified as halal.

该发展概念也提出，因为该国的理想气候下出产的高质量环保的阿尔卑斯山蜂蜜及其相关产品，都可以申请清真认证。

The country has opportunities for the creation and development of the halal industry in such areas as food and light industry, banking, education, perfumes and cosmetics, and pharmacology. This is especially important in the Eurasian Economic Union where product requirements are more stringent not only in terms of halal but also general sanitation. According to the Economy Ministry of Kyrgyzstan, products with certificates issued by the local Center for halal industry cannot be exported to the EEU countries. Kyrgyz manufacturers wishing to supply food products to the EEU countries should carry out its testing in accredited EEU laboratories.

该国在食品、轻工业、银行、教育、化妆品香水和医药等行业的清真行业有很大的发展机会和空间。尤其在欧盟中有着更高更严格的要求，不仅仅是清真产品，普通产品也是一样。根据吉尔吉斯斯坦经济部规定，由地方当局颁发的通过清真认证的产品不能够出口到欧盟其他国家。吉尔吉斯斯坦的工厂们希望对欧盟国家供应的食品应由实验室进行欧盟国家认可的测试。

 It was decided to use the Malaysian halal standards adopted not only by Islamic countries but also in Europe and Latin America.

不仅伊斯兰国家采用了马来西亚的清真标准，欧洲和美国也同样采用。

Currently, there is no official body that regulates the use of halal labeling in Kyrgyzstan, and accreditation of conformity assessment bodies for halal products is voluntary. A private organization, the Center for Development of Halal Industry, now issues certificates for halal products.

目前在吉尔吉斯斯坦没有任何官方机构规范的清真标识可使用，也没有受到清真行业一致信赖的评估机构。清真行业发展中心的一个私人机构，现在为清真产品认证。

Some Islamic experts believe that the halal sign is only required for meat where the risks are possible while other products do not need such a labeling. For example, the United Arab Emirates buy products from around the world but they require halal certification for meat only.

一些伊斯兰专家认为，清真标志只需要用在肉类产品上，而其他产品不需要这样的标签。例如，阿拉伯联合酋长国购买的产品来自世界各地，但他们只有肉类产品需要清真标志。。

The halal industry has been successfully developing in neighboring Kazakhstan. The Association of the Halal Industry of Kazakhstan has built a laboratory for the implementation and monitoring of this standard.

清真产业已在邻近的哈萨克斯坦成功开发。哈萨克斯坦的清真产业协会已经建立了一个实验室，实施这一标准的监测。

Kyrgyzstan is an ideal place for the development of halal animal husbandry because the cattle graze on alpine pastures here and this attracts potential buyers of meat. Therefore, the country should develop the industry on the basis of the halal standards.

吉尔吉斯斯坦是发展清真畜牧业的理想地方，因为牛在阿尔卑斯山上的牧场里吃草，这吸引了很多潜在的客户。因此，国家应该在清真标准的基础上发展产业。
