I contacted Wildlife Sanctuary in Colorado, USA as per suggested by Beth Machen (a supporter, thx Beth!) Here is their response....I know this is a small step but it is a start. Thx for all your support. Please continue to sign and share. Lets do it for the bears! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Pat! Thanks so much for your response! This is truly a silver lining. I will get the leg work started and get in touch with Animal Asia and Scorpion. Tell me, is it too premature to start a GoFund Page to assist rescue mission, only if I cannot secure release with the help of Animal Asia and Scorpion, refunding the money would be a nightmare. Shall I wait for a bit? thanks again for your help in this matter. warm regards Poh Yee From: Pat Craig Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2017 10:49 AM To: 'PY Holmes' Cc: rebekah wildlife-sanctuary.org Subject: RE: Bandung Zoo Hi Poh Yee, Thank you for taking the time to speak with Bekah, and for caring about the welfare of the bears in the Bandung Zoo. We would be more than happy to provide a life-long home for them if they do ever get released – which is always the biggest battle in these cases. If you or Animals Asia can secure their release, that would be great, but the government also needs to be in line with the concept of them leaving the country. Obtaining a CITES Export Permit will also be part of the battle, so it would be good to follow up with them to see if they are on board as well. In any case, we’d be glad to help if you can get past the first hurdle of getting the Zoo to agree. signature-pat-craig-email Pat
