"Fuziah Salleh has spearheaded the "Stop Lynas Rare Earth Refinery" campaign in Kuantan after being elected as the Member of Parliament for Kuantan in 2008. Fuziah has been raising her concern over the risks of having Lynas Advanced Materials Plant (LAMP) near Kuantan in the Parliament of Malaysia since 18 November 2008.[3]
“Concerned Citizen of Kuantan” was a civil society group initiated by Fuziah in December 2008 to discuss actions should be taken by the Kuantan community against the Lynas rare earth refinery project. Committee of “Concerned Citizen of Kuantan” was formed after a meeting held by Fuziah to discuss the LAMP issues with about 20 residents and professionals from different ethnic groups and NGOs near Kuantan.[4] The awareness campaign about the LAMP organized between 2008 and 2010 was taxing with limited organizations and individuals willing to render assistance. Also, only the local Chinese media picked up the alleged LAMP issues, while both the English and Malay media didn’t. In 2009, Fuziah’s team managed to get media coverage of the LAMP problems in Kuantan via the Malaysian television channels, both the NTV7’s [5][6][7] and the TV2’s[8] Mandarin programs.
After fighting a solo battle for more than two years to stop the Lynas plant from being built in Malaysia. In early March 2011, public awareness has been heightened by the articles on the Lynas project published in the New York Times.[9][10][11] At the same time, the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster has ramped up fear in the Malaysian people about the risks of radioactive exposure. Since then, the "Stop Lynas Rare Earth Refinery" campaign has started to gain momentum."
