An interview between 3CR’s Jan Bartlett and Lee Tan from Aid/Watch.  Lee updates us on the impacts of Australian miner Lynas Rare Earth’s, both in Australia and Malaysia.

Malaysians should not be left to deal with the health and environmental risks or the long-term inconvenience and costs of housing a mega radioactive waste dump of toxic materials brought in by Australian Rare Earth miner Lynas.

Malaysians are taking Lynas and its Government to the court to enforce its law on Lynas. Aid/Watch is working alongside Malaysian civil society to compel Lynas to remove its radioactive waste from Malaysia and to dispose of it in accordance with Australian regulation and standards.
