MP SPEAKS | Lynas has gone too far - time to say enough is enough Modified21 Feb 2021, 8:24 am A - MP SPEAKS | From the outset, it was a known fact that Bukit Ketam is situated in a water catchment area. This information was revealed by Maketab Mohamed, a water quality expert, the moment news was out in mid-February last year that Lynas plans to build its toxic radioactive waste dump in Bukit Ketam. Identifying a location to build its permanent waste disposal (PDF) facility was a condition set for Lynas’ licence renewal. The revelation by Maketab was sufficient to automatically disqualify Bukit Ketam as a site to dump radioactive waste. Therefore, this effectively means Lynas has failed to satisfy the condition for renewing its licence.
