KLUANG: Perikatan Nasional (PN) will soon issue an official statement regarding the draft memorandum of understanding (MOU) on allocations for all opposition MPs, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

JAKARTA: A lack of public education about the environment and animal conservation in the country has resulted in jail time for unsuspecting pet owners who are unaware that they have been illegally keeping protected animals as pets for years.

During his trial at Denpasar District Court, Sukena insisted that he was not aware that the animal was protected. Sukena is not the only person who is facing jail time for inadvertently keeping prohibited animals as pets. Piyono said that he bought the fish in 2008, having zero idea that it was illegal since the fish were readily available in a lot of pet stores in Malang.Many have criticised Piyono's five-month sentence, arguing that it was unfair since no pet store owners who sold alligator gars have been arrested by authorities so far.

Gilang further argued that these cases should be resolved through a restorative justice mechanism such as by imposing fines on owners of illegal pets.
