International Agreement to Prohibit the Eating of Dog and Cat Meat

Genlin is the founder of World Dog Alliance (WDA). His philosophy is to "change human society, save dogs and cats". To achieve his vision, while adhering to the legislative strategy, Genlin also intends to set up an international agreement to prohibit the eating of dog and cat meat. Such convention will be the best medium to draw international attention to the dog and cat meat issue.

 

On 21stJune 2014, WDA was founded to promote banning dog and cat meat consumption worldwide. Genlin believes legislation is the only means to eradicate the immoral practice of eating dog and cat, particularly in Asian countries.
