Save the Orangutans of Indonesia

Target:
President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono c/o Embassy of Indonesia to the U.S. 2020 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036
Sponsored by: 
Mr. President, during a recent tour through Indonesia the German actor, Hannes Jaenecke, made a film about Orangutans. He reported that Orangutans are not only kept as pets, but that sharia law is applied to them and their hand is cut off if they steal, for example an orange. Moreover, it was reported that female Orangutans are shaved and kept in brothels for the gratification of men. Orangutans reportedly are also used in kick boxing events.
We, the undersigned,  want to urge you to stop this disgrace to humanity and immediately take action to protect the Orangutans in your country. We also want to encourage you to establish strict animal rights laws in Indonesia so that the cases of animal cruelty can be properly prosecuted.

We want to thank you for your time to read our plea for justice to the Orangutans.

Please stop this cruel, abnormal and terrible handling with the Orangutans. As mammalian they are nearly as sensitive to pain as we are and they also suffer emotionally. My husband and I ask you to stop these acts of cruelty and save these wonderful animals for our planet. Thank you for your attention.

Quel malheur ! j'ai vu le film sur le désastre fait à la forêt Indonésienne et les conséquences sur la faune dont les Orangs outangs paient le prix fort, Les Indonésiens ne se rendent ils pas compte que c'est la richesse de leur pays qu'ils sont en train de détruire,et tout cela pour un gain dérisoire et relatif dans le temps! de plus ce trafic fait avec les petits est monstrueux!
