In South Korea, dog breeders, restaurant owners and nearly 200 people working in the dog meat industry gathered outside the presidential palace to oppose a bill by the government and ruling party members to ban the consumption of dog meat earlier this month.
THEY WERE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY
Former Dog Breeders Association President Ju Yeongbong, in his speech here, said that most of those working in this field are 60-70 years old, that these people are not looking for new professions, and that dog meat production is a business line that will disappear in 15-20 years because only a small number of South Korean youth consume it. He told me that it was.
It was reported that the police detained 3 people in the fight that broke out during the protest.
The protesters demanded an extension of the period before the ban and financial support from the government. (AA)
