Stop Animal Testing Lab Facility in Malaysia

The Issue

Indian drug company Vivo Biotech plans to build a multi-million dollar animal testing laboratory in Malacca, Malaysia. The facility will test trial medicines on primates, dogs, and small mammals. The primates will be obtained from Malaysian forests.

Vivo Biotech has chosen to outsource this project to Asia, because Malaysia has few animal cruelty regulations. This means there is no guarantee for the welfare of the animal testing subjects. Do not allow Vivo Biotech to outsource cruelty for profit.
