Malaysia has implemented the Certification of Good Aquaculture Practices in 2004 and has national standards since 2007 when Malaysia’s Standard (MS 1998: 2007) General Guidelines for Good Aquaculture Practices was officially publish for certification reference. Certification in Good Aquaculture Practices Malaysia requires farm owner to compulsorily participate in the National Aquaculture Residue Monitoring Program to verify aquaculture products from certified premises to be safe for human consumption and free from harmful contaminants.
