MBSA explains ‘Do not feed animals’ campaign
PETALING JAYA: While residents are up in arms over a Shah Alam City Council (MBSA) banner (

Some residents called MBSA’s decision irrational. Soon after, the council released a statement on its official Facebook page stating that the banner was merely to educate the public to refrain from feeding strays as this had inadvertently increased the stray population in the area.
“MBSA has received a total of 1,840 complaints regarding stray dogs in 2020. These complaints were of strays causing disturbance to the public, and if this is not curbed, there will be a further increase in the number of stray dogs,” MBSA said.
