KUALA LUMPUR, March 3 — Malaysia’s decision to renew Lynas Malaysia’s operating licence for another 10 years does not compromise public trust, the government said, stressing that the approval comes with strict conditions including a permanent ban on building new radioactive waste disposal facilities.

KEMENTERIAN Sains, Teknologi dan Inovasi (MOSTI) melalui Jabatan Tenaga Atom (Atom Malaysia) mengesahkan tiada sebarang peningkatan bacaan aras keradioaktifan berlaku di perairan Malaysia.

HASIL pemantauan melalui Sistem Pemantauan Air Spektrum Gamma (GSWMS) yang dipasang di perairan negara dalam tempoh 1 Okt hingga 30 Nov lepas mendapati tiada peningkatan aras keradioaktifan di perairan Malaysia.
