The workshop will cover the wildlife trade situation in Singapore and perhaps Southeast Asia and the laws that are in place and what steps can be taken to curb the trade further!
SPEAKERLouis Ng is Founder and Executive Director of the Animals Concerns, Research and Education Society or ACRES in Singapore. He has a degree in biology and a Masters of Science in Primate Conservation. Since its formation in 2001, ACRES has launched numerous campaigns to make Singapore an animal-friendly city. Its mission is to create a caring and socially responsible society where animals are treated as sentient beings and where the environment is preserved for future generations. Its campaigns have led to the improvement of local wildlife laws. ACRES undercover investigations have also led to a clamp down on the illegal trade in wildlife and its work has led to the rescue of more than 160 animals from the illegal wildlife trade.
