“Lynas - Vying for a License to Operate Amid Financial Crisis and Local Opposition”, 28 August 2014

…Australian-based organisation Stop Lynas Inc. released a paper criticising Australian rare earth miner Lynas Corporation for not sufficiently addressing its obligations to operate with a social licence in Malaysia. Natalie Lowrey, spokesperson for Australia-based Stop Lynas Inc said, "Lynas states on its website that 'it is engaged in a large public consultation program involving local residents, community leaders, villagers and their families', this is simply not true.”…Local Kuantan resident Seet Ping [said] "The LAMP [Lynas Advanced Materials Plant] was quietly built in our backyards without us knowing about it, and day by day the toxic radioactive wastes are piling up in open storage ponds in the plant which is situated in a low lying swampy area exposed to yearly extreme monsoon weathers. How could it be acceptable and safe for a world's largest rare earth refinery to operate without a permanent waste disposal facility?”…[Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Lynas to respond; it did not respond.]
