Sister City Campaign – Namyangju, South Korea – Fort Lee, New Jersey

Campaign updated on 3/23/2023.

Borough of Fort Lee Mayor Mark J. Sokolich: Tell your Sister City, Namyangju, South Korea, that you oppose the torture and consumption of dogs and cats.

If you want to help fight the grisly South Korean dog and cat meat trade and make a difference in South Korea, here are a few quick actions you can take that could save millions of dogs and cats each year.

Namyangju became a Sister City to the Borough of Fort Lee, New Jersey, in 2020.

In Namyangju, there are numerous dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, and restaurants where the dogs, who have been tortured their entire lives, end up being slaughtered in the most inhumane ways, such as by electrocution, hanging, or beating; and then thrown into boiling water – sometimes while they are still alive. In many places, dogs are being killed in full view of other terrified, caged dogs; and this takes place in broad daylight. In addition, many abandoned and stolen former pets end up in this industry and are subject to the same cruelty. 👉 Click HERE for a partial list of dog farms and slaughterhouses in Namyangju.

A Search Engine reveals the sickening scale of Namyangju’s dog meat demand.

Two searches on Naver (the most popular search engine in Korea) – one was for so-called “Health Centers,” which commonly sell dog elixirs and cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju), and the second one was for “dog meat restaurants” – resulted in dozens of Health Centers and dog meat restaurants in Namyangju.

Even if half of these ‘Health’ Centers and restaurants serve dog and cat ‘ingredients’ in one form or another, imagine how many dog/cat slaughterhouses must be in the vicinity of Namyangju to supply these outlets.

There are laws in South Korea against selling dogs and cats for consumption, yet these laws are blatantly ignored.

    Zehntausende Europäer boykottieren alle Produkte aus Süd Korea und als Touristen boykottieren wir Südkorea auch, solange die grausame brutale Behandlung sowie auch der verdammte dreckige Handel und der Konsum von Hunde- und Katzenfleisch existiert in Ihrem SHAME-country, das eigentlich schon lange von der Landkarte verschwinden sollte.
    Zudem beschäftigen wir in unserer Firma grundsätzliche keine Personen aus Südkorea Personen.

    Emails sent, sadly most were rejected by SK recipients. Many email addresses were no longer valid also. Maybe 1/3 of them got delivered. Also signed the new petition.
