I have actually done some research in some sectors of Halal food in South East Asia (back in 2009 when it was blooming). Three countries Thailand, Malaysia and Brunei use scientific methods to do halal quality checks. However lack of experience kind of buried the one in Brunei while lack of investments kind of collapsed Thai's (though they had a whole dept in one of their uni). The Malaysian one is 1 of the oldest research....however I am not sure how updated their technology is nor am I into the field any longer...

But it is good to try reviving the halal market plus get investments in Pakistan @Hyperion if you are alive I was talking about this once upon a time!
