100,000 protest mails to Nepal
____________________________
July 22 - It is estimated that European and American protesters have send some 100,000 emails to Nepal. The campaign targets the Nepalese travel industry, government officials and local media. In the letters (both email and snail mail) influential people are requested to help stop the breeding of monkeys for US labs.
This week three demonstrations were held in Berlin, Germany. More protests will be held in other European cities next week. US groups plan protests in New York & Boston.
International groups launched 'Operation Stop Monkey Business' to create international awareness about Nepal's breeding programmes and to pressurize stakeholders in Nepal.
