PETALING JAYA: The main condition for renewing the Lynas license is that its waste must be shipped back to Australia, but the media blacked out that part, says Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh. "I watched in detail the interview of Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in Japan on the Lynas issue. "The issue of the Lynas radioactive waste was explained in detail by the Prime Minister, but it was not reported by the media. She said the radioactive waste from Lynas was a public issue, and remained at the core of the decision on licensing with the Australian company. Since Lynas produces radioactive material, we wanted them to ship out the radioactive material back to the country where the raw material comes from, but the country of origin does not want to accept it.
