The highly anticipated subsidised mass neutering project, “Potong Royong,” officially commenced on August 22, 2023, to address the critical issue of animals overpopulation. In just its third day of operation, the project has already achieved remarkable milestones.

The initiative, which aims to control the burgeoning stray animal population, has garnered widespread attention for its innovative approach and commitment to animal welfare. With the support of dedicated volunteers and local veterinarians, “Potong Royong” has set in motion a significant step toward curbing the challenges associated with stray cats.
