Topeng Monyet
Thousands of macaques are bred or captured from the wild to be used as street performers, or
known as “topeng monyet”. The macaques are used to perform street shows; wearing funny masks,
riding bicycles, performing acrobatic moves and doing amusing things. However, such shows should be
banned for few reasons.
First, topeng monyet is a kind of exploitation of monkeys for money. The monkeys are hung from
chains for long periods to train them to walk on their hind legs like humans. Their teeth are extracted so
they can’t bite and they are tortured to remain obedient. The monkeys are often outfitted in dresses and
cowboy hats and forced to carry parasols or ride tiny bikes. This animal abuse will definitely hurt the
monkeys.
Second, the ban of masked monkey show can help improve public order. Topeng monyet is often
performed when traffic is backed up at notoriously congested intersections. This will disturb the sight
and create traffic jams for many motorists or pedestrians will slow down to watch the shows.
Third, banning the dancing monkeys is a necessary public health measure. It is important to
rescue the monkeys from street performances and help prevent diseases carried by the monkeys.
The monkeys used in topeng monyet may not be healthy and may have potential to some
diseases such as tuberculosis and hepatitis.

Vegetarians
There are many reasons why people become vegetarians, including personal health, the
environment, and the economy.
A vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat, poultry, and fish. Vegetarians mostly eat fruit,
vegetables, legumes, grains, seeds, and nuts. Vegetarians also consume eggs and dairy products, but
