So if they are objecting to monkeys being used as part of the agricultural process, when will they stop importing vegatables from countries which use oxen, buffaloes etc to plough fields?

 

 

 

Lets ban lamb as well as farmers use dogs to heard them.

I don't know of anybody who refused to buy coconut milk because of it being harvested using a monkey, I don't think most people are even aware of it.

Could it be that once again another country does it better and/or cheaper than here ?

I believe you are right;
monkeys are an excellent scapegoat while the main reason is too strong baht ..

Interesting that this article appears to be aimed at Thailand only because there is at least one Thai company that exports coconut milk from Indonesia not Thailand.  No information is available about whether or not there is any monkeying around on that front.

'nuf sed.

Just dress them up as farm workers and maybe no one will notice.

It's not the using of monkeys that gets P.E.T.A.s knickers in a twist they claim that they use cruel methods to train them.

I saw a guy with a monkey both sharing M150 on break from coconut collecting. No joke.
