Maktab Koperasi Malaysia (MKM) has one courses namely branding and packaging courses. For this courses, our participant will learn detail about branding, how to do a packaging, the machine use in packaging and also how to read a bar code. Here, I want to share with you how to read a crossed code  for every product sell in Malaysia. Each product has a unique line number to identify it. Perpalang code consists of black lines punctuated by white space. The number assigned to identify products intended instead to classify or carry detailed information about the product. There are various symbol codes used throughout the world as the European Article Number (EAN), the Uniform Product Code (UPC), Code 39, Codabar, Interleaved Two of Five etc. Malaysia using the EAN system known in Malaysia as Malaysian Product Numbering (MPN) system. I give some tips how to read the crossed code above is like this:-

6074 is Code Product Manufacturer- It is given by FMM to manufacturers food 

10624 is Specific products- 5 different digits given to manufacturers food by FMM
