Guest guest Posted December 27, 2000 Report Share Posted December 27, 2000 Hi everyone, Hope you all had the very best of the holiday season, and in the upcoming year all of your goals are realized. I received a news letter from " Paws.com " in the Philippines, sent to me by Oscar Lei,per snail mail. The people at Paws - " Philippine Animal Welfare Society " are working very diligently to enforce laws, and to stop dogeating, and the use of, at least " domesticated animals " , for fur by-products.At least one of thier government officals, Alfredo S. Lim, Sec. of the dept.of Interior, and Local gov't. has declared all out war to help promote, and support animal welfare in their respective jurisdictions.Since July of 2000, several raids, and confiscations of dogs have taken place, and the perpetrators transporting the dogs, for use as consumption ,or for by- products have been arrested. What follows will be yet determined. However this might be a good time to write the Philippine govt. lauding Sec. Lim, and asking for more govt. support, to address the Animal welfare issues in the Philippines? You can write to Sec. Lim, thanking him for his support at: Secretary Alfredo Lim Dept.of Interior,and local Government 10th Floor, Francisco Gold Condo Edsa corner,Mapagmahal Street Diliman, Quezon City Fax: 925-0332 For more info go to http://www.programes.com/paws Fran http://www.hua.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
