Aku tolong menyampaikan saja rayuan dari Rozaliana Rosli ni.. beliau menulis surat rayuan meminta agar Najib membantu hingga membolehkan Katarina di hantar pulag ke Sarawak.
Menurut Rozaliana, Katarina berumur antara 11 tahun dan tinggal di Kuala Lipis, Pahang negeri kelahiran Perdana Menteri itu, sejak tiga tahun lalu.
Katarina tinggal bersendirian di dalam penginapan yang tidak sempurna, tempat tidurnya hanyalah konkrit yang menyebabkannya kesejukan sepanjang malam.
Berikut adalah gambar Katarina dan juga surat rayuan yang dimaksudkan..
Dear Yang Amat Berhormat Dato’ Seri Najib,
We write to you to humbly ask that you request to transfer Katarina the orangutan to the Matang Wildlife Sanctuary in Sarawak.
Katarina is around 11 years old who lives in the Kuala Lipis Zoo, Pahang, since three years ago. She has always been thrown junk food by visitors and this is not good for her health.
Katarina lives alone in the enclosure and also in a night cage without enrichment and her night cage is completely void of any bedding and she is forced to sit on cold concrete everyday for at least 12 hours after the zoo is closed.
The Kuala Lipis Zoo is severely underfunded and they are not in a position to look after a delicate species such as an orangutan. Other animals are also in urgent need of help at the zoo.
Being extremely smart animals, orangutans have special captive needs which need to be met so they do not suffer.
Orangutans (and other Great Apes) are social animals and cannot be kept alone in captivity, or it will effect their mental health. Since the orangutan is one of Malaysia’s icons, we believe Katarina shouldn’t be treated this way.
In over a month, more than 7,000 supporters of Katarina from around the world have asked for her to be sent to the Matang sanctuary, in a petition we started.
Recently, a British paper also revealed Katarina’s plight. We have also been asking the relevant authorities to relocate Katarina since August.
We sincerely hope your kind self could help ask the transfer of Katarina from Kuala Lipis Zoo to the Matang Wildlife Sanctuary where she will receive great treatment, thanks to the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC).
Getting Katarina to the sanctuary will be the perfect New Year’s gift to her.
Your help to relocate Katarina is very much appreciated.
Rozaliana Rosli,
Campaign Coordinator
