Why is Lynas bad for Malaysia?
• A large amount of radioactive waste will
be produced. It is dangerous to health.
• The radioactive waste will remain
dangerous for millions of years
• Radioactive waste should not be stored
in an area where 700,000 people live (in
other countries, they even bury such
waste deep inside mountains)
• Radioactive dust can be blown around
by the wind (even to faraway places)

Why is Lynas bad for Malaysia?
• The waste can go into Sungai Balok and
into the South China Sea. This will make
fish radioactive and dangerous to eat.
This will destroy our fishing industry.
• Floods can spread the dangerous waste
around
• A dangerous radioactive gas called
Radon will also be produced
