Inspection at India

Introduction: as i am managing my collegues visit to our sub-vendor somewhere in India, as usual, I had contacted our main contractor via email to make necessary arrangement for my collegues stay there. Among them were hotel booking, transportation, and -not forgetting- to prepare halal food during the visit.





This is some of what the contractor forwarded to their sub-con:-





Please also kindly provide accomodation for following three personnels below:

XXXXX

- 29 to 31 May (3nights)
- Halal Food


-27 to 31 May (5 nights)
-Halal Food, but cooked chicken is acceptable.


We appriciate your kind coorporation for this visit.






Therefore, i replied something like this:-





Bla, bla, bla... (work stuff, work stuff)





Is it possible to serve halal food, or sea food if halal food is not possible, which is cooked not using any alcohol/wine and animal oil? Halal food also means that the food is cooked not using alcohol and animal oil; it could be deer or sheep of even chicken, as long as it is slaughtered the Islamic way to avoid torturing the animal. The knife used to slaughter the chicken should be sharp to avoid torturing, and to ensure that the animal’s vein should be separated to dismiss dirty blood from the animal so that is will be a healthy and clean dish for human beings to eat. Food that affects your health is also not permitted, therefore halal food also means that the dish is good for your health and is obtain from a healthy way. Even if the food is halal (slaughtered and prepared the ways that I’ve explained), if you obtain it by an un-healthy way, stealing for instance, the food is no longer halal. That is the beautiful philosophy of halal food, just as an information.

Also, kindly provide us with the testing procedure for us to prepare for the inspection.

Your cooperation is highly appreciated.
