Since the hiring of a new Executive Director in 2016, we embarked on a strategy to ensure that we would be in a position to fulfil those five tenets. I am happy to report that, three years later, the Chamber has achieved what it set out to do, reviving itself to become a significant voice for the American business community. We are stronger today than we have ever been and ready to face the challenges that impact us every day. As we witness monumental shifts in global trading relationships and the breakneck speed of technological development, the challenge of innovation and adoption, along with the shifting needs being imposed on talent development, makes it imperative to be communicating consistently with our host government. To do our jobs, it is incumbent on us to be as up-to-date and responsive to the changing business environment. This is made easier with our active engagement at the Chamber, along with the financial support we provide at various opportunities throughout the year. A strong Chamber becomes vital in helping us work as partners with the government, to bring out the best for both our companies and the country, together.

We find the Minister’s statement completely unacceptable as it clearly reflects that he is putting the profits of the company over and above the safety of the Malaysian people and the environment. Moreover, it is not the Entrepreneur Minister’s mandate to interfere with the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change (MESTECC), who is responsible for handling the toxic and radioactive wastes generated by the Lynas Plant in Gebeng, Kuantan. We are completely in support with MESTECC’s decision to ask the Lynas plant to remove and dispose of its radioactive wastes contained in the Water Leach Purification (WLP) process,which are in accordance with the two letters of undertaking given by the company to the government in February and March 2012. The Entrepreneur Minister should be supporting the efforts of MESTECC’s Minister YB Yeo Bee Yin in ensuring that Lynas stick to the undertaking given to the government. It is unacceptable that Datuk Seri Mohd Redzuan is taking the side of Lynas! SAM and CAP have always been calling for the wastes to be exported as these wastes cannot be regarded as naturally-occurring radioactive material but are in fact technologically-enhanced have been made dangerous by technological processes which involve removal from the ground and concentrated by mechanical and chemical processes.

  • Bauxite Mining Will Have ‘Positive Impact’ on IJM — CEO
    NEWS UPDATES MALAYSIA CORPORATE POLITICS & GOVERNMENT Ministers in discord over Lynas issue Chester Tay & Adam Akmal Aziz/ The Edge Financial Daily April 02, 2019 09:03 am +08 This article first appeared in The Edge Financial Daily, on April 2, 2019. KUALA LUMPUR: In a surprising turn of events, Entrepreneur Development Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Redzuan Md Yusof yesterday lambasted his colleague Yeo Bee Yin, who is the energy, science, technology, environment and climate change minister, for compelling Lynas Corp Ltd to ship out its wastes from the country, saying her stand was not one that was endorsed by the cabinet. He said Yeo has to “take responsibility” for her statement — issued in December last year — on the matter, saying the cabinet had never decided on any measure to manage the wastes produced by the Australian rare earth miner’s Lynas Advanced Materials Plant (LAMP) in Gebeng, Kuantan, Pahang. The Alor Gajah member of parliament (MP) also said Lynas’ investment in Malaysia is “too big to ignore”, and that the cabinet is not supposed to force the company to export its plant’s wastes back to Australia, unless they are “very unsafe”. His comment, said to reporters in Parliament yesterday, came after he remarked on Saturday that the government would allow Lynas to continue its operations at LAMP in the interest of foreign direct investment. 1 Info shared by Perpustakaan EiMAS NEWS UPDATES Mohd Redzuan’s statement raised more than a few eyebrows, as the matter is not under his ministry’s purview. The episode happened after Deputy Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change Minister Isnaraissah Munirah Majilis told the Dewan Rakyat yesterday that the ministry had written to Yeo’s Australian counterpart to collaborate on the transfer of Lynas’ accumulated radioactive wastes from Malaysia to Australia.
