Wellness in Environment: Philippine Airlines issued a statement on its Facebook page stating that the airline will no longer transport "any and all types of primates destined for cruel research and experimentation." The airline's statement explains that this new policy is a direct result of PETA's relentless efforts to urge it to stop shipping primates destined for painful and deadly experiments.

"Since earlier this year, PETA Asia and our affiliates have protested colorfully at Philippine Airlines offices around the world. Recently, PETA Asia activists even visited two of the company's ticket offices to let customers know about the cruelty that they were supporting by flying on the airline. Other activists also lent a helping hand by conducting demonstrations at Philippine Airlines offices in Sydney, Taipei, Seoul, and elsewhere."
