Wong Tack hits back at Aussie High Commissioner over Lynas

Wong says foreign direct investment has no relation to pollution issues.

KUANTAN: Bentong MP Wong Tack has hit back at Australian High Commissioner to Malaysia Andrew Goledzinowski for saying that the closure of the Lynas rare earth refinery will be a tragedy.

Wong said it would be a tragedy only to the people of Malaysia, particularly the community of Kuantan if people turned a blind eye to pollution issues just to allow corporate gains.
