The association has since urged the relevant authorities in Sarawak to investigate the post regarding the sale of fried puppy meat.

The sale of animal meat that is not intended for food or is not suitable as a source of food should be banned to avoid the problem of zoonotic diseases or other infectious diseases due to germs or viruses.

“History proves that various infectious diseases exist as a result of eating animal meat that is not suitable for human consumption,” it wrote in a Facebook post.
