Olympic Committee Members ‘say it like it is’ - well done, and thank you! - Stop the Dog and Cat Consumption in S. Korea!

Olympic Committee Members ‘say it like it is’ – well done, and thank you!

posted by KoreanDogs.org team on October 17,2016 in Action Alert, Campaign, PyeongChang 2018

For several years, we have campaigned to the Sports Community asking them to stand with us in speaking out against the South Korean cruelty of the dog and cat-meat trades. This is a highly sensitive, political and controversial issue, and we rarely get a response. However, on occasion, we reach people who are not afraid to speak out or make their opinions known. These are very brave people and deserve full recognition, and we would now like to share a few of the letters we have received from them, and give them our wholehearted thanks.

Their replies are extremely important in making the Korean Government aware that the drive towards getting South Korea to be a dog-meat free country is spreading, with a voice that is growing and will only get louder – and more damaging in the eyes of the international community.

You can find a sample letter to the International Olympic Committees which you can use, and email information, here: https://koreandogs.org/what-you-can-do/more-contacts-for-protest/write-to-isoso/

Mr. Antonio Silva, the President of the International Triathlon Federation for Nicaragua, is a man of courage. Alice wrote to all the members of the International Triathlon Federation and received only these responses so far. Although Triathlon is not part of the Winter Olympics it is important that our message goes out to all members of the international sports community.
Gracias, Señor Antonio Silva!!
