Subject: Sacramento, sister city of Seoul Yongsan District S. Korea

 

Dear Mayor Kevin Johnson and the City Council members:

 

Please watch the undercover videos from South Korea’s dog meat industry:

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

 

The Korean internet searches resulted in: 88 “Health Food Centers” which commonly sell dog/cat elixirs (also known as dog soju and cat soju); and 41 dog meat soup restaurants in and around the city of Seoul Yongsan District alone.

 

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

 

Please urge Seoul Yongsan District Mayor Jang-Hyun Sung 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:
