Our Customers Love WONO
For the first time he trying out a brand new, he seemed to like it and refused to stop eating. I had to stop it. He’s a little fussy about his food, but in this case, it does not look like that.
Zulaikha Shahril My cats named “Achik” and “Intan” seemed enjoy to eat the kibbles even it was their first time of trying new brand. They repeatedly asked for dry food and ate quickly and finished 2 packets just in 1 day or less..what can i say, they fall in love with WONO cat food brand
Anirah Azuri

S
yabas Malaysia. I wish to congratulate the Rakyats who have successfully switched their servants in a peaceful manner. I especially felt grateful that our current Minister of Communication and Multimedia, Mr Gobind Singh Deo promised freedom of speech especially for printed media like us. We have been defending the rights of needy animals and will continue to speak out on behalf of them and we hope that with the new founded freedom of speech, we can highlight
more plights of these needy animals even if it means exposures of weaknesses by government bodies. Are you among the 100,000 visitors who visited Pet World event this May? We sure hope that you have managed to grab a copy of our magazine from our booth! Flip away for the event report. I have good news for Penang pet lovers. Many complained that most of the major pet events only happen in the Klang Valley but worry not, Pet Expo Penang is coming to you this 28 – 29 July. Don’t say Bojio ok.
A big shout out to One FM William who joined our Animal Food Bank Ambassador family. We had a great time shooting with him and Ginger, a Siberian Husky adopted by him. As a radio DJ, we believe William San will be able to raise awareness in regards of the sufferings of needy animals and influence the public to help these poor souls. While I pen off for our 9th issue, I can’t wait for our 10th! Yang
“We have been defending the rights of needy animals and will continue to speak out on behalf of them”

From the Airwaves One FM’s renowned deejay William San is Animal Food Bank’s latest ambassador. Let’s hear the story about him and his beloved Siberian Husky, Ginger.

VIPFOCUS
“I will never give up on Ginger, no matter what.”
H
is voice is the greatest company to the thousands of road users nationwide during the frustrating rush hours. Many are not only familiar with his voice, but also with his appearance in movies, TV shows, and TV dramas. He is none other than
William San, One FM’s radio announcer, actor, singer, and most importantly, a pet lover and proud owner of Ginger the Siberian Husky. Now, William San is Animal Food Bank’s ambassador, and is here to speak out for all the less fortunate animals.
HAND: A sweet moment between William and Ginger, captured for eternity.

VIPFOCUS William shared his story with Ginger with us: about 4 years ago, William adopted Ginger, the youngest in the litter, who was only about two months old. Being the youngest, Ginger was also the smallest. William fell in love with her the first time he saw her, and did not hesitate to bring her home, and never regretted since. Their relationship did not start smoothly - Ginger wasn’t used to the new environment when she moved into William’s house, and howled throughout the night. But that did not discourage William. “I will never give up on Ginger, no matter what,” he told us. William shared with us his unique view regarding the many cases of animal abandonment. “We should stand in the shoes of these poor animals. How would you feel if you are the one abandoned? Although they are dogs, they are also our best friend. We must think from their perspective. They could be naughty and playful, but that’s how they express themselves, because they can’t speak like us.” he said.
