 The all thing is resumed by the fact that the farming and slaughtering laws applied in industrialised countries are not the same as in other poor countries. Since the product is legal for importation, no country can force another one to apply them own laws about farming and slaughtering: They can just threaten to do not buy an animal product if the animals are not processed as they want. Nothing else.
Since there is apparently a blind and unconditional demand for those skins: Places like Sumatra and others will allways produce skins by them own ways.
Don't forget that in many countries, animals are rarely treated with empathy as humans see themself as predators on the top of the food-chain.
The funny thing is that many people who will be shocked by a reportage like that, will let them cat playing with a mouse during a half-hour before it miserably dies... Because they think it's natural or just prefer to turn them head.
