Fuziah says despite low radiation level at Lynas, long-term effects still hazardous
01 June 2019
KUANTAN, June 1 — Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh still believes that radioactive waste at Lynas Corporation Ltd’s rare earths processing plant in Gebeng here should be sent home, despite claims that the radiation level is low. “I wish to remind you that in the case of low radiation level, the effects cannot be seen overnight, but in years,” she told the Media after attending a ‘Ziarah Tautan Kasih Santuni Ibu Bapa’ programme at the Asnaf Complex of Pahang Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council here, today.
“If Lynas were to build a plant in Australia, it would send such waste to mines, why should there be a double standard? Why here they say the waste can be located near the plant, which is close to a river and the sea?” she asked.
