The framework develops an integrated MYeHALAL with blockchain infrastructures in Malaysia's MyDigital national digital transformation agenda for a comprehensive HSCRM framework that suits Malaysia's digital economy. Institutional theory and risk governance theory underpin the study that adopts a combination of a systematic literature review with conceptual synthesis to determine the vital halal risks at different stages in the supply chain. In the proposed framework, Malaysia's blueprint for the digital economy is leveraged with its new infrastructure for blockchain to enhance its levels of traceability, oversight by regulatory institutions, and integrity assurance. The researcher has designed the framework to align with Malaysia's strategic objectives. The target is to attain a 25.5% contribution of the digital economy to GDP by 2025 and position it as a regional leader in the digital economy by 2030. These findings may present strategic and policy insights to regulators like JAKIM and the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation, as well as its industry players, to position Malaysia as a global benchmark in digital halal governance in the near future.
