Some Insight from BAWA Bali- to SPCA

For the past 5 months, i was stationed in Bali, Indonesia. Yes, a paradise for all... this little goddest island is a total distinct to any other part of Indonesia. In Bali, i

was engaged with BAWA.. following their movement and activities, and involve in

some of their awareness campaign.

BAWA Bali- stands for Bali Animal Welfare Association .BAWA, The Bali Animal Welfare Association is a not-for-profit organization registered in Bali, Indonesia and is dedicated to improving the lives of animals.BAWA's mission is to relieve suffering and overpopulation by providing medical care, spay and neutering, street-feeding and adoption, and by educating children and adults in animal welfare.

It is founded by BAWA was founded by Janice Girardi, an American resident in Bali for over

30 years, and leading Indonesian veterinarian Dr Dewa Made Dharma. This organization has somewhat impress me with their impact on an island like Bali. They have not only reached out the

locals citizens but also to the Australian community, tourist as well as visitors all over the world.

BAWA is located at Forest Monkey, Ubud. It is very much like in TUARAN from Kota Kinabalu Town, People who visited UBUD will definitely aware of the signboard as well as indication of BAWA LOGO around. Their awareness impact is high, they are like little reminder to you when visiting

UBUD...

In Sabah, we have animal rescue too, even well known world wide called SPCA.Check their website :

however, for a small population like Sabah (2.2billion) comparing to Bali (3.1bill) with an estimate about 30,000 ( expatriate), i strongly believe that there will be a w

ay for us to reach an utmost impact to the society on animal cruelty.Perh

aps starts with a mindful set for the Animal lovers..

EAT.SPAY.LOVE

Is one of the slogan used by BAWA. It gives a lot of impact and directly deliver message to the target audiences. Various sector, provide necessary support, Authorities, NGO, Public and even politicians, contribute their bits to the success of BAWA.

When an Island with RABBIES like BALI can do it, Why not us in Sabah..

First and foremost, love your pet...
