VEGETARIANISM: THE LIVES SAVING WAY TO LIVE<br />

PA N O R A M A O F E V E N T S<br />

“Eating at Loving Hut just<br />

feels like the right thing to do: it’s<br />

healthier, it’s compassionate, it’s peaceful,<br />

and it’s the only way to a sustainable planet. In addition,<br />

the prices are great and the food is yummy . . . .”<br />

A new entry to the global chain of vegan restaurants,<br />

Loving Hut Istanbul is the first of its kind to arrive in the<br />

Arabic world. Snugly nestled in the historic centre of<br />

Beşiktaş, the most friendly and densely populated upand-coming<br />

district of the city, the little homey eatery<br />

attracts many students and teachers from the area’s nine<br />

universities, as well as foreign visitors who learned<br />

about Loving Hut from the Internet. Its chic yet vibrant<br />

atmosphere and simple yet delicious and affordable<br />

organic food, appeals to both vegetarians and nonvegetarians<br />

alike. Many first-time visitors claim it a<br />

delightful discovery and many come back bringing their<br />

friends. As a satisfied customer put it:<br />

Coverage by local newspapers<br />

and media on the opening of<br />

the Loving Hut Istanbul<br />

I’ve always thought that Beşiktaş needs a place like this vegan restaurant. I think all living<br />

beings have a right to live and I think we shouldn’t consume any living being for its flesh, milk<br />

or anything. I think the most loving way is to start with being vegetarian.<br />

Congratulations Loving Hut Istanbul, on a promising start in Turkey. And we thank Master<br />

for Her compassionate support of this international vegan franchise. May more and more people<br />

discover the humane and healthful joys of plant-based fare. We look forward to the day when<br />

all people may reap the wholesome benefits of the vegan lifestyle.<br />

Eco-Conscious Radio Campaign<br />

By Wellington News Group (Originally in English)<br />

[Wellington] From September to December, Golden Year 7 (2010), a series of 15-30 seconds<br />

radio advertisements promoting a plant-based diet were aired through a major New Zealand<br />

radio station The Breeze, at peak times to reach hundreds of thousands of listeners nationwide.<br />

These advertisements, written and read by our local Association members, were designed<br />

to be concise, personal, and humorous with the aim of raising public awareness of the benefits<br />

of switching to a plant-based diet. Topics covered included health, deforestation, and river<br />

pollution. At the end of each advertisement, listeners were directed to www.suprememastertv.<br />

com/Be-Veg and www.quitmeat.org.nz for further information.<br />

Initially, the cost for the campaign was almost out of reach. But with God’s grace, the<br />

radio station later reduced the fees and with the combined contribution from all five of our New<br />
