Govt to look into calls for Lynas closure, says Dr M

PUTRAJAYA: A day after giving rare earth producer Lynas a six-month extension for its operating permit, the government says that it will look into calls for the plant to be shut down.

However, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said an investigation was conducted on Lynas' activities in Gebeng, Kuantan and found there was no danger.
