Subject: Bergen County should not be a Sister city to Seoul Geumcheon District S. Korea!

 

 

Dear County Executive James J. Tedesco III,

Members of County Executives,

Board of Chosen Freeholders.

 

Sir, Madam:

 

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

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

 

The Korean internet searches resulted in: 129 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 Geumcheon District alone.

 

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

 

Please urge Seoul Geumcheon District Mayor Sung-Soo Cha 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:
