PETPOSITIVE NEWSFLASH:The first follow-up meeting between the Majlis Perbandaran Kelang (MPK) and animal NGOs is scheduled to take place on Monday afternoon.
Petpositive has learnt that the discussion will not be a brainstorming session but rather a meeting to set up a permanent committee to look into the stray dog situation in Klang town.
The MPK will be calling all the local relevant government bodies that deals with dog issues plus several animal NGOs to sit in the committee.
Representatives of the Fire Brigade are also expected to be called for the meeting.
The idea to set up the permanent dog committee in MPK was first suggested by Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya Councillor Anthony SB Thanasayan who was present at last Monday's inaugural meeting to discuss the Pulau Ketam stray dogs issue after it was prominently highlighted in the media.
Meanwhile, SPCA Chairman Christine Chin told PET+BLOGSPOT that the visit yesterday of Director General Datuk Dr Aziz Jamaluddin of the Veterinary Services Department (DVS) went ahead quite successfully.
Plans are underway to start the sterilisation of stray dogs in Pulau Ketam with the help of DVS, she said.
According to reports, more dogs are being rescued from the islands of Pulau Ketam and being treated by veterinarians in various clinics.
