Slow down, give way: Ronnie Ong launches #BrakeForAnimals campaign

By Billy Begas

Ang Probinsyano Rep. Ronnie Ong has launched the #BrakeForAnimals campaign to remind the drivers and motorists to slow down to give way to passing stray animals.

Ong has partnered with the animal rights advocacy group Pawssion Project, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) and the private sector to set up an information drive to remind motorists to drive more carefully especially in the presence of stray animals.

With the help of private companies, massive #BrakeForAnimals billboards were put up in various locations like near the Guadalupe-Makati area, along the northbound portion of Cubao, and across SM Megamall.

The billboards along EDSA also feature images of dogs and cats that are hit-and-run survivors and victims of animal cruelty, as well as an aspin named Coco, Ong’s adopted rescue from Pawssion Project.

“Just a split-second of braking for animals crossing the road can save lives. If you cannot adopt or rescue or foster, at least don’t hurt them please,” Ong said.

He added that Pawssion Project and other animal rights advocacy groups also brought the campaign on social media.
