[Call for Action] Gimpo, South Korea’s shameful and disgusting secret! "We found dog valley in Gimpo yesterday. Has an awful feeling being in the saddle of a mountain with about 10 dog farms all in the same small area, most with tall steel fences so you cannot see in, and everyone watching you as you drive in and out. Very odd feeling." These are the words I received from a friend in Korea. Our campaign, asking for the Mayor of Glendale, California to support us, by contacting the Mayor of Sister city Gimpo, has been partially successful, in that Mayor Sinanyan did raise our concerns with his Korean counterpart, Mayor Young-Rok Yoo. This is good news as it is encouraging to know that Glendale are prepared to take positive action, and are willing to ‘better understand South Korean standards, practices, laws … cultural differences’, etc. etc. But, in response, Mayor Young-Rok Yoo’s office has done nothing more than to give the ‘standard’ assurance to Glendale that their country’s animal treatment laws etc. are being adhered to. We know that this cannot be the case. We are now asking Glendale to follow up their initial contact by continuing to urge Gimpo to stop the dog/cat meat trades in their city; trades which are not adhering to their animal treatment laws and which employ brutal and inhumane methods of rearing and slaughtering their meat-dogs.
