There are about 24% retail shareholders.

Out of these 24% ,there is a percentage that believe one thing or another.
Opinions voiced are what individuals gather from media BECAUSE the LYNAS MANAGEMENT DID NOT KEEP THEM WELL informed.

Are you saying that The Malaysian Gov .takes notice of any part of the 24% of the retailers while ignoring the SILENT 76% majority ?
And which countries are linked with the 76% Shareholders.

Well, what can one expect if OUR dear PM Julia Gillard opened her mouth . Is Lynas getting a fair treatment ?

No insult to our Malaysian Chinese friends .This is political and not racial .
Do you really believe that Chinese Gov does not know what is going on in Austral /Asia ?
Both China and America got their influence in most countries ESPECIALLY their neighbors.
I will be very surprised if The Chinese Gov has not got some affiliation with a pol group in Malaysia to protect their interest.
What background are they likely to be ,native Malays, Indian, or Chinese ?
Australian cannot be called poms , because they don t all come from England . Who barracks for the English Cricket team ? Would it be those with Irish, Italians background OR.........
I believe that Malaysian Gov ,is being EXTRA cautious to minimize problems in future . So let s all be patient if the intention is to hold long term .imho
