In a series of events at the Thailand Halal Assembly 2024, the Halal Route Workshop was held in Bangkok on December 19, 2024. As part of the initiative by the Working Group on Halal Products and Services, this program aims to enhance halal tourism across the IMT-GT subregion, connecting key destinations and promoting the unique cultural heritage of IMT-GT member countries.

Led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Winai Dahlan and Assist. Prof. Dr. Paradorn Sureepong from the Halal Science Center (HSC) at Chulalongkorn University, the session focused on the transformative impact of Halal Route app. The HSC has developed this innovative app to revolutionize the travel experience for Muslim tourists, offering detailed guides to halal-friendly experiences in Thailand.
