Guest guest Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Dear friends and colleagues, Tomorrow is Japan Dolphin Day 2006. We are now 61 NGOs strong, protesting the worlds largest dolphin slaughter at 32 Japanese embassies and consulate offices worldwide. Our message will be heard loud and clear all the way to Tokyo: STOP the DOLPHIN SLAUGHTER. Please do not be discouraged if your demo is not covered by the local media. It really doesn't matter that much. Japan Dolphin Day was designed to have an impact on the permitting process in Tokyo, not locally. These Japanese embassies and consulate offices must report any protests to the Japanese government in Tokyo. I'll never forget the words of the young dolphin hunter in Taiji who said to Helene and I: " You must stop taking pictures, If the world finds out about this (dolphin slaughter) we will have to stop. Tokyo officials may not issue another permit. " We will not stop take pictures, and we will not stop protesting until the annual dolphin slaughter is finally abolished. Good luck tomorrow, and thank you so much, Ric www.SaveTaijiDolphins.org Will the following NGOs please stand up and take a bow.
