陈文德:阻止稀土提炼厂作业 拯救大马委会今访澳



拯救大马委员会代表团在主席陈文德的率领下,将于明日(2日)起至10日二度访澳,展开为期9天的行程,主要议程是为阻止稀土原料通过柏斯费里特码头出口至彭州格宾。
陈文德表示,该会在来届大选前寻觅永久解决方案,阻止莱纳斯稀土提炼厂于格宾作业。
经费由售T-恤所得
他说,此行程的经费由销售反稀土T-恤及公众募款所筹得。此行并无所谓胜算,一切尽人事,尽力而为。
在此,他呼吁符合资格的人民,务必登记为选民,为了未来可以生活在健康及零辐射环境下,不要忽略身为公民具有的权利,在大选时发挥人民力量,向莱纳斯说
他出发至西澳前,在记者会上如是表示。
如果人民的命运取决于外国几间公司的话,那么,独立就失去原来的意义。
另外,他指出,以人民的利益为出发点,不排除和其他团体组成联盟,或共同诉求的管道的可能性,毕竟,团结力量会比单独组织来得有效。
目前,还没有正式接洽或建议任何计划;只要关切民生课题,任何组织,都可以和我们组成协同作用,一同争取。
政治人物随时改变立场
陈文德不能解读马华关丹区会主席拿督郑联科对稀土厂的立场,他认为,政治人物的立场随时改变。
有关独立专家小组的进展,陈文德说,现阶段在物色专家当中,以及设定其研究领域范围,目前还未限制期限,重要是依序完成。
另外,他也指出稀土提炼厂作业后,将会严重影响关丹至甘马挽一带的经济脉搏及产业投资,如旅游、燕窝业、渔业,以及下游的饮食业等。
他表示,该组织会通过司法途径,停止莱纳斯操作。


Save Malaysia Committee delegation, led by the Chairman, will embark on  a 9-day tour, starting tommorrow, to Perth Australia with the main agenda  to prevent the rare-earth materials from exporting via Fremantle port to Gebeng, Kuantan.
According to SMSL Chairman, Tan Bun Teet, a permanent solution must be found  before the next election, to prevent Lynas rare earths refinery from operating in Gebeng.
Funded by the proceeds of sale of t-shirts and public donation, Tan explained, although he cannot promise a definite victory from this trip, he and his team will try their utmost best to present the case in Australia. He also urged all eligible citizens to register as voters. “Do not ignore a citizen’s rights. People’s power will  play a crucial part in saying NO to Lynas when the next General Election come “
" If the fate of the people is being dictated by  several foreign companies, then, independence loses its original significance.”
In addition, he pointed out that, in the interests of the people, alliances with other groups are not excluded. A  joint appeal would also be possible. After all, working in solidarity will be more effective than working individually.
"At present, there are no formal engagement or any plan. We are prepared to work with any organisation that has an issue with the livelihood of people in the area.”
 Tan also commented, he cannot interpret Malaysian Chinese Association Kuantan District Chairman Dato Ti Lian Ker’s position on this rare earth refinery factory. In his view, politician can change their stand at any time.
On the independent expert panel set up progress, Tan revealed it is at the stage of identifying the experts  and set the scope of its research . There is no date line set on it. The most important thing is to complete the process. In addition, he also noted that investment and the economy such as tourism, bird's nest industry, fisheries, and the lower reaches of the catering industry would be greatly affected by the rare earth refinery plant.
He said the Organization will stop Lynas through judicial means.
