SINGAPORE: An information counter for drivers of Singapore-registered cars with questions about their vehicle entry permit (VEP) will open in Woodlands on Aug 19, said Malaysia’s Road Transport Department (JPJ).

KOTA KINABALU: There has been inadequate action against animal cruelty cases in Sabah for years, says the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Kota Kinabalu .

It called on animal lovers to unite and urge the authorities to enforce the related laws so that those who harm animals are held accountable.The owner's action of leaving the kittens in front of a veterinary clinic was caught on CCTV on April 20."According to the Sabah Animal Welfare Enactment 2015, abandoning animals constitutes a punishable crime,” it said in a statement on Friday .

However, the owner was not subjected to any punitive action and was only made to pay medical and quarantine fees to the Sabah DVS, it added.“DVS considered the case closed. In the meantime, SPCA KK was left 'punished,' having to take responsibility for the ongoing care of the kittens, including vaccinations, neutering, and food costs,” it added."It is concerning, as it not only perpetuates animal abuse but also undermines public trust in our animal protection laws,” it said.
