Shangri-La orangutan exploitation: to end on March 31st!

posted in: News | 0

Update about our campaign to stop Shangri-La from exploiting orangutans in their luxurious resort in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah:

FOTO was informed earlier this week and is please to announce that the two remaining orangutans at the luxury resort will be sent back to the Sepilok rehabilitation centre on Thursday 31st of March, officially ending the Shangri-La Group’s 20 years exploitation of Sabah’s orphan orangutans!

This so called “orangutan rehabilitation” programme was initiated in 1996 with the approval of the Sabah Wildlife Department. FOTO has been campaigning since last year and despite numerous attempts to contact Shangri-La’s Rasa Ria’s management we never received reply from them.

 

Thank you to all our supporters!
