I urge you, as an official with the power to make a difference, to please use your authority to support an amendment to strengthen South Korea’s Animal Protection Law to ban the torture, killing, sale and consumption of dogs and cats.
I am appalled and shocked to learn about the rampant cruelties inflicted upon animals that have been documented in South Korea’s live food markets.
The dogs are raised in the most hideous and cruel environments, only to be beaten and slaughtered by the millions.
There is no appropriate animal protection legislation to prevent the prevailing animal cruelty currently taking place in South Korea.
As someone who believes strongly that animals should not be treated in this way, I have the following requests: I urge the South Korean Government to strengthen the South Korean Animal Protection Law to prevent animal cruelty and to introduce basic animal protection regulations.
It must also provide penalties for violations and ensure that mistreated animals can be legally seized from abusers and given immediate refuge. I request that the South Korean Government create an enforceable law to ban the torture, killing, sale and consumption of dogs and cats.
Without banning the dog and cat meat trade and amending the Animal Protection Law to the global standard, South Korea will not enjoy the respect commensurate with the country’s international stature.
I will not support South Korean businesses or visit South Korea until these horrors come to an end.
