(KR) Fwd: URGENT/ puppy mill by the Korean government

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

 

This is Gina, how are you.

 

 

* " Market size of the companion animal reaches KRW 1 trillion… government

supports industry facilitation

Rural Development Administration hosts the heating to support for the

development of the companion animal industry

The government has come to support for the facilitation of the companion

animal industry. *

 

Rural Development Administration (hereinafter " Rural Development

Administration " ) has indicated that it held the hearing on setting forth the

direction of research for supporting the development of the companion animal

industry for new animal resource with the relevant officials from companion

animal related industry, academics, policy department and others at the

National Institute of Animal Science on the 24th of the month. " from

Medical newspaper article~

 

Recently I received SOS from animal organization CARE to stop Korean

government to open a gigantic puppy mill in Busan all planned and designed

by the following government department.

According to the report,1000 plus animals are already have been imported and

stand by for the breeding program.

 

Pls remember this is rather urgent case as they are going to open the center

by end of this month.

 

I am wondering if you write letters and also to send alert messages to the

animal organization network?

I'd appreciated if this can be done in speedy way!

 

It has been heated debate amongst many animal organizations here but the

government officials are going to push it forward no matter what.

 

** I am sorry to contaminate your email by forwarding 4 emails from CARE.

It is basic translation done by CARE since we could not find any English

Media coverage on this- typical of Korean Media again.
