"Pertandingan Menangkap Anjing Liar" - What the???
Can't Post
I'm not sure if you guys read about this but if not, here it is...
"Majlis Perbandaran Selayang has openly called for a witch hunt on all stray dogs at its website http://www.mps.gov.my/default01.htm To add insult to injury they are also offering RM15,000 as first prize for capturing alive, presumably for the most number of dogs followed by equally lucrative second and third prizes."
What the ****!!!??? What's this? This is just sickening, cruel, disgusting & barbaric blood sport! This is NOT funny at all... What is the government thinking? What's wrong with them!?
They are encouraging people who obviously hate dogs especially the malays to do this kind of thing? And each dog they catch alive is worth RM20. What if they catch someone's dog who has accidentally run away or what about our pedigree dogs? The rules stated down that only stray dogs are allowed to be caught but what do they know about dogs? They don't know the difference between a mongrel & a pedigree & they will just grab them away from us just to make big bucks?
We have to do something quickly coz this competition will be running for a bout a year or more. The 1st prize winner has to catch around 150 strays alive & he/she will win RM15,000 for that.
Please, please, please... We have to stop this stupid competition quick. Please write & report about this to all the newspapers including the chinese ones too. Tell them about what the government has come up with before it's too late...
Hi Melissa, Thanks for starting this thread so quickly... For everyone else... you cal help!!! STOP BARBARIC DOG CATCHING COMPETITION I would like to call upon all individuals to speak up against the Selayang Municipal Council for organizing this BARBARIC competition. I also urge all individuals to NOT take part in the competition in order to preserve our integrity as decent human beings.

I have also posted this in lowyat.net under Real World Issues as I believe the forumers there are more varied, i.e. more ppl will get to know about this.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Thanks everyone who has updated their blogs with the latest news from my blog. I would however really appreciate it if you could link back to me. The reason for this is because I am constantly updating these posts, and I am wasting alot of time checking your blogs to tell you of the updates. So it will be great if you can mention the updates, but to inform your readers to check Mad About Labrador Retrievers for the latest news. Please this is vital to save time and effort and to ensure that everyone has the right information. Natasha Fernz
I guess those dog owner living around Selayang area have to start evacuation already. No wonder so many dognapping case happen lately.
They perbandaran doing this because its hard for them to do something ilegal because theya r perbandaran but letting other uneducated kampung people do the dirty job to catch watever dog insight which they dont care whatever dog with lesen or tiada lesen.
Perbandaran Selayang can escape easily for watever happen because they can denied whatever problem that will occur in the future.
Pls dont leave ur dog wondering around, i m not really sure bout the Akta haiwan perliharaan yet but i think the only one that can uphold the law is only the police.
Anything happen , pls log a report to the nearest police station.
SPCA, PETPOSITIVE, ROAR and other animal welfare organisations will be gathering at the Majlis Perbandaran Selayang office to hand over a memorandum to the President of MPS.
DATE: 11 SEPTEMBER 2007 (TUESDAY) TIME: 10.00am VENUE: MAJLIS PERBANDARAN SELAYANG
Need all the publicity we can get, and we need all the supporters we can get too. So please be there if you are free...
