ANIMALS
CERTAINLY HAVE RIGHTS TOO! One of the things that I was privileged to
do as MBPJ councillor over the past five years is to get the council to
get rid of its ancient dog-catching vehicle and replace it with a
spanking new one. The new one is more humane and discreet, helping stray
animals travel with better comfort to PAWS Animal Welfare Shelter in
Subang. We even took
the trouble to get experts from the Department of
Veterinary Services to inspect the vehicle and give
their professional opinion. The former mayor Dato Roslan bin Sakiman
had famously said that animals in Petaling Jaya should be given the same
respect and care as human residents. Although there is so much more to
do, MBPJ has come a long way from then to now where we celebrate World
Animal Day every October. Pet owners have become more aware about pet
responsibility as well as on animal kindness and understanding of their
needs.
