    Huttons Asia: We Are Working With Animal Lovers League To Identify Driver Who Hit Sayang

    Dear members of the public,

    With regard to the incident involving Sayang under the care of Animal Lovers League. As Corporate Citizen, Huttons Asia would like to stand firm that we do not condone such actions against Animals as this is not in-line with our corporate values. This applies regardless whether such incidents occur outside their capacity of work.

    Huttons’ management met with Animal Lovers League today, and both parties have yet to conclusively identify the driver of vehicle at the material time as the key witness was not available.

    From our understanding, 2 separate reports have been lodged with the Police with regard to the alleged driver of the vehicle. As this incident has been handed over to the Police, Huttons seeks your patience and understanding on the outcome of the investigation. If the Agent is found to be the driver involved in this incident, Huttons will take the necessary punitive measures against this individual.

    Huttons values your feedback and will continue to play our part as a responsible Corporate Citizen of this Community.

  • Huttons Asia Hit By Massive 1 Star Review After Hit, Curse And Run Accident

    Huttons Asia Hit By Massive 1 Star Review After Hit, Curse And Run Accident

    Animal Lovers League (ALL), a registered charity which is a shelter to about 700 abused and rescued dogs and cats on 23 Oct, appealed for information on the driver of a car which ran over their dog. The incident happened on 23 Oct at about 10.45am near 61 Pasir Ris Farmway 3.

    ALL said in a Facebook post: “Two Witnesses asked her to stop and help them with the injured dog. The driver’s response was “F*** you. It’s only a dog,” and drove off. If you know who the woman driver is, please TEXT or whatsapp Cathy on 91546422.” The car plate number is: SJR9248E.

    The animal shelter in saying that it would file a report on the incident with the Police as well as AVA, described the injured dog as a “really sweet dog who loves his pats and treats.”

    The unfortunate event which happened just outside their shelter was witnessed by several volunteers.

    “When the car ran him over, the wheel rolled over him and he was also hit several times by the mud guard as the driver didn’t stop, while he struggled under the car,” said ALL. The dog is currently being attended to by a vet.

    The owner of the car that ran over a dog belonging to an animal shelter in Pasir Ris has now been identified as 38-year-old woman living in Tampines. A commenter on All’s volunteer Lixin Tan’s Facebook post said that he paid the fee to extract the information using the car’s registration plate.
    1Facebook user Jessica Yeow said that the hit-and-run driver is a real estate agent.

    After Jessica’s post revealing where the hit-and-curse driver worked went viral, Huttons Asia which is believed to be the real estate agency in which the driver works, started getting massive 1 star ratings in Facebook.

  • Woman Driver Runs Over Dog, Shows No Remorse And Drives Away Without Helping

    Woman Driver Runs Over Dog, Shows No Remorse And Drives Away Without Helping

    Some woman just ran over one of our dogs at the shelter with her car. When confronted, she said, “It’s just a dog, fuck you.” And then she drove off. We’re filing a police report. Please help to share this and help us find this woman and bring her to justice. Such cruelty cannot be tolerated in our society.

    Edit: The car plate number is: SJR9248E

    My apologies for not providing more info. Yang yang is a really sweet dog who loves his pats and treats. When the car ran him over, the wheel rolled over him and he was also hit several times by the mud guard as the driver didn’t stop, while he struggled under the car. This incident took place right outside our shelter and in front of us and several volunteers witnessed it. This happened in broad daylight at approximately 10.30AM at Pasir Ris Farmway 3 on a road that is hardly ever busy with very few cars passing by at any one time.

  • Malaysia Culture & Tourism Minister: Don’t Be Stupid And Backward, Don’t Ban Use Of “Hot Dog”

    Malaysia Culture & Tourism Minister: Don’t Be Stupid And Backward, Don’t Ban Use Of “Hot Dog”

    KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 19 — Religious authorities’ decision to deny halal certification over the word “hot dog” is stupid and backward, said Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz.

    The Umno supreme council member said it was unequivocal that the word “hot dog” did not mean the food item contained dog meat, adding that there was no reason for the Department of Islamic Development (Jakim) to take issue with the term now.

    “Hot dog has always been known to be a western food. It comes from the English language. It is a western food. Please do not make us seem stupid and backward.

    “Hot dog is hot dog la. Even in Malay it’s called hot dog. It’s been around for so many years. I’m a Muslim and I’m not offended. I’m not offended at all,” he told reporters when met outside the Parliament today.

    Jakim this week confirmed that eateries must rename the “hot dog” if the item is in their menus, if order to secure halal certification.

    A department spokesman said food items containing the word “dog” could confuse Muslims, as the animal is considered unclean by Islam.

    Nazri today rejected the argument, saying that eating hot dogs has never endangered his faith.
    “This is ridiculous. This is done by people who are ignoramuses. They are not living in the real world.

    “I think I now want to eat a hot dog now,” he said with a chuckle.

    When met by reporters here, PAS MP Nik Mohamad Abduh Nik Abdul Aziz said he has no issue with food operators using the term “hot dog” to describe sausage-based food products.

    “The issue here should not be the name of the food. Any name is okay, as long as its contents are halal but food companies cannot intentionally use names which will confuse Muslims either,” the Pasir Mas MP said.

    The issue surfaced after an executive with US pretzel chain Aunty Anne’s revealed that their application for halal certification had failed due to, among others, concerns over the “pretzel dogs” in their menu.

    The incident is the latest in the growing trend of religious conservatism in Malaysia, the only country in the world that prohibits non-Muslims from using the word “Allah” and other Arabic terms.
