Subject: Maui County, Hawaii, should not be a Sister city to Goyang, S. Korea!

 

Dear Mayor Alan Arakawa,

Maui County Council members:

 

Please watch the video of a dog farm in Goyang:

Also please watch the undercover video from the documentary trailer by the Korea Observer:

Goyang is one of the largest dog meat consumption areas in South Korea.

 

The Korean internet searches resulted in: 275 Health Food Centers which commonly sell dog/cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju); and 212 dog meat soup restaurants in and around the city of Goyang alone.

 

The Maui County should not be a Sister city to any city that allows dogs and cats to be tortured and eaten.

 

Please urge the Goyang Mayor Seong Choi and Gyeonggi-do Governor Kyung-Pil Nam 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 trade can be found at:

The favor of your reply is requested.

 

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

 

Sincerely:
