Subject: Gwinnett County should not be a Sister city to Seoul Gangnam District, S. Korea

 

Dear County Commissioner Charlotte J. Nash and the Board of Commissioners:

 

Please watch the undercover videos from South Korea’s dog meat industry: http://youtu.be/3uR8R8Mu70Q

 

Seoul Gangnam District is one of the largest dog meat consumption areas in South Korea.

 

The Korean internet searches resulted in: 163 Health Food Centers which commonly sell dog/cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju); and 69 dog meat soup restaurants in and around the city of Seoul Gangnam District alone.

 

Gwinnett County should not be a Sister city to any city/district that allows dogs and cats to be tortured and eaten.

 

Please urge Seoul Gangnam District Mayor Yeon-Hee Shin to close down all illegal dog farms and slaughterhouses, markets, truckers and restaurants who serve their products.

 

An online petition calling for your support in ending the horrendous South Korean dog and cat meat cruelty is in progress:

The favor of your reply is requested.

 

Thank you,

 

Sincerely:
