Dear supporters, Almost two months ago we announced the impending cessation of Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort's exploitation of orphan orangutans from the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre in the Malaysian Borneo state of Sabah, in April. The luxury resort have officially announced on its website their "rehabilitation" programme will end on 31st March, tomorrow! The resort claims "...the Orangutan Rehabilitation and Conservation Programme has ultimately reached a successful conclusion." Don't be fooled, the "rehabilitation" was anything but a "success". Read our response to SWD and RRR's success claim first made earlier this year through the Borneo Post: http://tinyurl.com/jkjf4jl We will inform you once we have confirmation the remaining two orangutans at the resort have been sent back to Sepilok. "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead
