[Closed] Call for Action: PyeongChang 2018 – Organizing Committee
[Update March 9, 2017] PyeongChang 2018 has removed the user comment area. This is after deleting dozens of our messages protesting the Korea’s horrible cruelty. Thank you everyone who participated and spoke out for the poor Korean dogs and cats.
The PyeongChang Organizing Committee for the 2018 Olympic Winter Games (POCOG) was launched back in October 2011. It is an event which has been a long time in the planning: the POCOG want to make sure they ‘get it right’.
We want to let them know that the best way to ‘get it right’ is, in the first instance, to put a stop to the ‘wrong’ that is being committed in the dog and cat meat trades.
We want to let them know that, if they do nothing to stop these ‘wrongs’ by permanently ending these horrendous trades, many people across the world will boycott this Olympic Event, and will boycott the sponsoring companies, too.

Stop eating dogs and cats.
Stoooooooooooooooooooooop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stop the barbaric cruelty immediately! The world is watching!
Have respect for all life – if you cannot respect those who have no voice how can you respect anything.
This is not ok! Can we please end it already?!!
Members of the Organizing Committee. ..If you want the 2018 Olympics to be successful. YOU MUST END THE DOG MEAT TRADE. .the world is watching and WE ARE NOT GOING AWAY.
The history of cats and dogs, as far as I know, throughout the world has not been for eating, the relationship that has evolved makes your using them as food, animals with such hearts, barbaric. Please stop it!!
Stop the dog meat trade now. It is disgusting and heartbreaking
Please stop this this this is so cruel we are not suppose to eat cats and dogs.
There is something called Karma aka cause nd effect. You wil reap wht you sow
I am getting sick only to look at the pictures of the poor dogs in small cases and when I read about what is going on in your country I am getting even more sick. In Denmark we treat the dog and the cat as family members and all people here think you must be monsters, when you do this to these poor animals. No animals should be treated like this, it is so disgusting, how can you?
I’m so ashamed to know this exists in your country. If you treat your animals, this way, I’m afraid to know how you treat your woman and children. Please make this stop. No living creature deserves to be beaten boiled alive and tortured no matter what the reason. This is sickening.
Arrêtez de torturer ces pauvres animaux ! ce sont nos bébés, nos enfants…
Vous êtes inhumains…

VEGANISM is the Only Logical and Moral response ! ! !

Stop this evil vile torturing and killing of dogs and cats . The Olympic Games will be a joke if this is held within a country who commit such barbarism. The world watches and awaits on an intelligent person of power who will have the wisdom and compassion to know what’s right and what’s wrong …, TORTURING AND KILLING THESE INNOCENT ANIMALS IS WRONG TOTALLY WRONG … You are TERRORISTS towards another species … There is no other words other than you are illetarate evil people who are fanatics of blood shed in the worst form of sickness. We disrepect your kind you are worse than ISIS …, you are EVIL and we DO NOT want this evil within our world. Stop NOW
Why are you all posting your comments and protests HERE? NO ONE sees them but other protesters! You’re supposed to comment on the links given above! Telling them to “Stop” on this page makes no sense and helps not one dog or cat!

Done, on their page. Please guys as someone else also said, post on their offical page as was advised in the instructions. Also, while venting out is fine but calling them names won’t make them change one bit. Money drives the world and it’s the commercial aspect and bad publicity which will scare these people. They have been holding games after games and international events and I really wonder if our comments affect them even one bit. As long as they have the backing of the IOC and the sponsors, what deters them from holding the games. I can understand about Samsung & LG but Coca Cola, Panasonic and others are not Korean companies. Why can’t they be forced to stop sponsoring events in Korea?
pure and utter Brutality at the highest level no animal should have to suffer these atrocities these are loving Pets they have feelings it’d disgusting crue act stop this abhorrent cruelty wicked and very evil.
