Action Alert/Stop Greyhound racing in Vietnam/Cambodia

[Guest guest]

STOP GREYHOUND RACING IN VIETNAM/ CAMBODIA

 

PLease contact the Peoples Committee below, faxing/phoning is much more

effective, and ask them to withdraw their offer to Sports and Entertainment

Services, who are responsible for greyhound racing in Vietnam.

They have granted SES a 30 year license for the development of greyhound

racing in Cambodia. Racing facilities have been cited in Phom Phenn. This

will be catastrophic for the greyhounds if it goes ahead.

 

Please let them know that greyhound racing is not a tourist attraction. It is

considered a cruel sport and banned in South Africa and many states in the

USA.

Let them and the contacts below know that you will not be visiting Vietnam or

purchasing any Vietnamese goods or supporting ventures in Vietnam, until such

a time that greyhound racing has been abolished from Vietnam.

For further information contact:

Please remember greyhound racing in Asia is greatly dependant on the tourist

trade to keep going. Please let the tourist offices in your areas know what

you think about greyhound racing in Vietnam.

Urge them to contact the Ba Ria Vung Tau Tourist Corporation (details below)

asking them to stop greyhound racing in Vietnam as it will no doubt effect

the tourist trade.
