PERCHÉ QUESTA PETIZIONE È IMPORTANTE

Lanciata da KoreanDogs . org Team

Petition: https://chng.it/szDxWqKyJp

Vestas Wind Systems President Henrik Andersen: Please tell your Partnership
Country, South Korea, that you oppose the torture and consumption of dogs and
cats.

Click HERE for more actions you can take: https://koreandogs.org/vestas/

The Korea Herald reported on 1/19/2023, “Vestas announced plans to invest $300
million in Korea at a ceremony held Wednesday at a hotel in Davos, Switzerland,
with President Yoon Suk Yeol attending. Vestas is a Danish company that ranks
first in the world in terms of wind power installation. Vestas plans to
establish a large-scale turbine parts production plant in Korea to produce core
wind turbine facilities in Korea and export them to the Asia-Pacific region. In
addition, it decided to relocate its Asia-Pacific headquarters to Korea and make
Korea a key base in the region.“

Yonhap News reported on 6/26/2023, “Under the plan, the company will relocate
the Asia-Pacific headquarters from Singapore to Seoul in September and begin the
construction of a large-scale turbine parts plant in the first half of 2024 that
will produce key equipment for wind turbines for export to the entire
Asia-Pacific region.“

Kwangju Ilbo News reported on 6/29/2023, “Denmark’s Vestas Wind Systems, the
world’s largest wind turbine company, has decided to build a turbine plant in
Mokpo. Expectations are growing that the 8.2 GW offshore wind farm development
project, which is a vital issue in Jeollanam-do, will accelerate further.”

This partnership was undoubtedly formed for your mutual benefit. Still, we feel
confident that your company would have hesitated to create such a Partnership
had your company known about the aberrant and cruel practices routinely carried
out in the dog and cat meat trades all over South Korea. Lucrative but illegal
trades carry on unchallenged, with no enforcement of the laws and no punishment
for those violating them.

South Korea is the home to global companies, such as Hyundai, Kia, Samsung, LG,
Daewoo, SK, and POSCO, which is why it is so shocking that an estimated 2.5
million dogs are tortured and slaughtered every year within South Korea, because
of the greed of dog eaters and the dog meat industry; while the majority of
those Koreans, who don’t participate in this offensive trade, show a profound
indifference by doing nothing at all to stop it.

We know how loyal and faithful our dogs across the world are. We all ask a lot
of them - they serve us in innumerable ways: farm work, war work, police and
guard duties, search and rescue, help for disabled people, guidance and
guardianship, and, of course, as our loving and trusting companions.

Dogs were first domesticated thousands of years ago, and so much do they want to
be part of our ‘human’ family that they have learned to understand our gestures
and language - the language of another species- showing remarkable willingness
and intelligence.

In South Korea, there are numerous dog farms, slaughterhouses, markets, and
restaurants where the dogs, who have been tortured their entire lives, end up
being slaughtered in the most inhumane ways, such as by electrocution, hanging,
or beating, and then thrown into boiling water – sometimes while they are still
alive. In many places, dogs are being killed in full view of other terrified,
caged dogs; this occurs in public and in broad daylight. In addition, many
abandoned and stolen former pets end up in this industry and are subject to the
same cruelty.

Please watch this undercover video by animal rights activists in South Korea:

Imprisoning dogs in raised wire cages in South Korea’s dog meat farms is extreme
cruelty: https://youtu.be/D9Hw4u1XKo4

There are laws in South Korea against selling dogs and cats for human
consumption, yet these laws are routinely and blatantly ignored.

As management of Vestas Wind Systems, we ask you to reconsider your
“partnership” with South Korea, a country that permits dogs and cats to be
horribly abused and brutally killed for food. We sincerely ask that Vestas
cancel its plans to invest in South Korea, cancel its plan to move Asia-Pacific
headquarters to Seoul, and cancel its plan to build a manufacturing plant in
Mokpo.

We believe there must surely be some social responsibility for the
representatives of a global leader in sustainable energy solutions brands such
as Vestas to take a stand against the dog meat industry in South Korea.  Your
voice would be a powerful addition to the many who have already spoken out
against the industry.  Therefore, we urge you to take action, to show your brand
is on the side of these dogs suffering right now and to state that Vestas is
officially opposed to the dog meat industry in South Korea and asks that the
following existing Korean laws be enforced by its government officials, police
and judges:

Breeding:

Unauthorized processing of food waste fed to dogs in the meat trade violates the
Wastes Control Act, Article 15-2, Article 25, Section 3. Suppliers of food waste
and transporters of food waste to dog meat farms are violating this regulation.
(Penalty: imprisonment with labor for not more than five years or by a fine not
exceeding 50 million won per Article 64 of the Waste Control Act. Imprisonment
with labor for not more than three years or by a fine not exceeding 30 million
won per Article 65 of the Waste Management Act.)

The unauthorized collection of food waste and feeding it to dogs violates the
Control of Livestock and Fish Feed Act, Article 14, Sections 1 & 2. (Penalty:
imprisonment with labor for not more than three years or a fine not exceeding 30
million won per Article 33 of the Control of Livestock and Fish Feed Act.)

Excrement and resulting environmental damage produced as a by-product of the
illegal dog meat farm violate the Act on the Management and Use of Livestock
Excreta. The excrement produced at dog meat farms causes environmental damage to
the immediate and surrounding area. (Penalty: imprisonment with labor for not
more than two years or a fine not exceeding 20 million won per Article 49 of the
Act on the Management and Use of Livestock Excreta.)

Slaughter:

Slaughtering dogs for human consumption violates the Animal Protection Act
Article 10, Section 1, Clause 1-4. Killing an animal by hanging it by the neck
or by using any other cruel methods; killing an animal on the street or any
other places open to the public; or killing an animal with animals of the same
kind present at the scene despite the absence of unavoidable reasons such as the
animal's habits and ecological environment using the animal as food for other
animals; killing an animal without any justifiable grounds such as prescribed by
Ordinance of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, such as
prevention of direct threats to human life or body or property damage is a clear
violation of the Animal Protection Act.

The slaughter of dogs by electrocution violates the Animal Protection Act,
Article 10, Section 2, Clause 1. Inflicting an injury to animals by physical or
chemical means, such as tools or drugs, is subject to legal punishment.
Therefore, the routine slaughter of dogs by butchers and farmers by these
methods violates the Act.  (Penalty: imprisonment with labor for not more than
three years or a fine not exceeding 30 million won per Article 97 of the Animal
Protection Act.) Further, electrocution as a method of slaughter is
internationally recognized as an inherently cruel method of slaughter and banned
globally. In Korea, the Supreme Court in 2020 convicted a case of slaughtering a
dog using an electric iron skewer.

The slaughter of dogs from an unauthorized slaughterhouse violates the Livestock
Products Sanitary Control Act, Article 7 Section 1. The Livestock Products
Sanitary Control Act states that dogs are officially recognized and classified
as “animals” that are “prohibited from being slaughtered and distributed as food
for human consumption.” Therefore, those vendors operating dog slaughterhouses
are operating outside of the parameters of the law. (Penalty: imprisonment with
labor for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 100 million won per
Article 45 of the Livestock Products Sanitary Control Act.)

The slaughter of dogs for consumption violates the Animal Protection Act,
Article 10. The Act intends to ensure that no animal is slaughtered in a cruel
or revolting manner and shall be free from unnecessary pain, fear, or stress
during slaughter. Therefore, the only humane way of killing dogs would be by
euthanasia (lethal injection). All currently practiced methods of slaughter by
butchers, farmers, and traders exclude euthanasia as a method of slaughter.
Therefore, they are all in breach of this Act. This also violates the Livestock
Products Sanitary Control Act Article 7 Section 1 Clause 2. According to the
Livestock Products Sanitary Control Act, the slaughter of animals for their
consumption is allowed only for the livestock animals publicly announced as
livestock classification in the Livestock Products Sanitary Control Act, and
dogs are not classified here.

Distribution & Sale:

The display and sale of dog carcasses in traditional outdoor markets violate the
Food Sanitation Act, Article 4, 5. It violates laws banning the sale of harmful
food due to the contamination from the unsanitary and illegal animal slaughter
and display of the dog carcass. For example, dog carcasses are routinely
contaminated by microorganisms that cause human diseases and food poisoning,
leading to severe and life-threatening health complications. There are also
strict laws that ban the sale of meat from sick animals. These laws are
routinely violated because there is no quality control or proper monitoring of
slaughter practices in the dog meat trade.

Dog meat restaurants’ sale of dog meat soup made with dog carcasses from an
unknown source violates the Food Sanitation Act Article 44 Section 1 Clause 1.
Uninspected livestock products must not be transported, stored, displayed, sold,
or used to manufacture or process food for human consumption.

The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety must crack down on and punish businesses
that sell dog carcasses and that process, cook, and sell products that use dog
carcasses as raw materials.

Please refer to the legal information regarding dog meat consumption in South
Korea published by KARA (Korea Animal Rights Advocates):

http://koreandogs.org/kara-publishes-legal-information-booklet-ending-dog-meat-consumption/

Dog meat consumption is a catastrophe brought about by the government's
inaction. Here are reasons why dog meat consumption is illegal.

International coverage of the brutal dog and cat meat trade in South Korea has
stained South Korea’s image. The time to end this tragedy is now. Will you speak
out for the dogs? The favor of your reply is requested.
