Selangor animal caregivers would be pleased to read these news: http://www.thesundaily.my/news/2204270 An excerpt: Selangor is on its way to becoming the first state in Malaysia to sterilise stray animals rather than culling as a form of population control.

We have told applicants repeatedly that 60 sen stamps is insufficient, especially if you unknowingly exceed the weight, use coloured envelopes or non-standard sized envelopes, but time and time again, applicants insist on putting only 60 sen stamps.

I’ve had quite a few episodes of receiving mails with…

Here we go again…. I know I sound like a broken tape recorder, but it’s happening again – applicants who don’t put enough stamps in an ordinary post. Previously, the mail is still delivered, stamped “T”, that means the recipient (poor us) is taxed double for whatever balance of postage is required. And time and…

Here we go again….(it’s the same old issue)! It’s not that we don’t want to help as many caregivers as possible, but the applications have to comply with our requirements.
