Sister State Campaign – Gyeonggi Province, South Korea – Florida

Campaign updated on 5/17/2023.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis: Please tell your Sister State, Gyeonggi Province, 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.

Gyeonggi Province Governor Kim Dong-yeon

The Capitolist reported on April 28, 2023, “Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met with South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-Soo and other officials during the second leg of his international trade mission, aiming to strengthen economic ties and foster collaboration in clean hydrogen technology and eVTOL vehicle development. DeSantis signed an MOU with LowCarbon Hydrogen Corporation to create a research hub in Florida, reaffirmed a sister state agreement with Gyeonggi Province, and discussed eVTOL possibilities with Hyundai Motor Group and Kia Corporation.” 👉 Click HERE for the article.

Gyeonggi Province became a Sister State with Florida in 2000.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis met with South Korean Prime Minister Han Duck-Soo.

In Gyeonggi province, there are countless 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.

A Search Engine reveals the sickening scale of Gyeonggi Province’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 thousands of Health Centers and dog meat restaurants in Gyeonggi Province.

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 Gyeonggi Province to supply these outlets.

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

    I feel that the way these poor dogs are treated in these meat farms is beyond atrocious. They are fed garbage/trash to eat and barely survive from the looks, of how these dogs are, Their body condition. to throw Them crammed full, in small cages, even the big breed ones, is so awful. then unloading Them. thrown off the truck and poor dogs do not know what is happening. just fear. when They start to torture cruelly to death one dog, then the other dogs all kno. for They can see and sense, and smell the blood. Then up till Their time, thye lay, sit, stuffed full, hardly able to breathe, wait Their turn to die in the most horrid way. electrocution, boiling water, flames of fire. what ever way, the evil slaughter man does. This needs to STOP NOW! Have mercy on these innocent animals. They have done nothing to deserve this type of treatment.Bless Them and mae these people see the light.They are sentient beings, that are companion animals. not for meat. not to be abused cruelly from birth to Their untimely cruel death. TY.

    Korea, du musst das wirklich ändern! Ich würde NIEMALS einen Fuß in Ihr Land setzen! Du bist eine nationale Schande auf der Weltbühne !!
    Diese ganze Praxis ist so widerlich für jeden denkenden Menschen !!! Die Grausamkeit, die die Menschen zeigen, und der Mangel an Respekt gegenüber lebenden unschuldigen Hunden, die der beste Freund des Menschen sind, ist unerhört! Es liegt in der Verantwortung Ihrer Regierung, dies jetzt zu stoppen und die jungen Generationen umzuerziehen und zu erziehen, dass diese widerliche Praxis aufhören muss! Die Welt schaut auf dich!!!!!!

    Dear Sirs,

    I BEG YOU PLEASE to do whatever is in your power to put an end to all those terrible dog farms and slaughterhouses and to punish whoever keeps all those poor SENTIENT ANIMALS in such horrible cages and subject to everyday torture, hunger and unbearable suffering and fear only waiting to be killed in the worst of ways.

    They are not just objects for consumption! They suffer and feel pain and misery like all living beings. They are kept in horrifying conditions and are subject to torture and unimaginable suffering and terror, every day of their poor and desperate life, until the moment they are killed with electrocution or hit violently with hammers.

    I can’t even watch the images and videos of those tortures and the ways these poor dogs and cats are kept and killed. So, how can men do such terrible things? And is that really necessary to hurt so much? Can one be so heartless??

    Please! I do trust you have the power and the will to put an end to all this violence, horror and suffering.

    I thank you in advance for whatever you will be able to do to save them from their terrible conditions and destiny – they all have the right to live their lives in the best possible way, like any other living being.

    Your sincerely,

    Laura Zainotto

    These disgusting low like have been torturing dogs and cats for food forever. China, Vietnam,Cambodia are just as cruel especially this week with the Yulin dog slaughter festival in China. These barbaric greed nations will never change regardless of pressure from other countries. Boycott all there products immediately and hit them hard with sanctions especially Vietnam. Has anyone seen changes of this disgusting cruelty or decline in dog farming? NO OBVIOUSLY NOT. Sick evil bastards will never change.
