Menurut berita ini yang aku dapat melalui staronline via twitter, ianya berlaku pada 2 Jun 2011. 2 JUN BEB! dah 12 hari. Di mana tempatnya? Cuma ada beberapa kawasan industri sahaja yang ada kilang sebegini. Bagaimana kesan terhadap sekitar dan radius pelepasan radiasi tersebut? Kontami 100 kali dari paras normal? Bacaan radiasi pada pekerja 400 kali paras normal? Kalau tak silap kat Fukushima bacaan sebegini (100 kali) akibat tsunami melangkaui radius 30KM. Bagaimana pula jika ianya terbebas kedalam air? Berapa pula jarak selamat? Kerajaan dan AELB tak nak bagi rakyat panik? Mungkin itu alasannya TAPI bagaimana kita boleh percaya kepada kerajaan dan AELB untuk menangani isu LYNAS jika berlaku kes-kes kebocoran dan pengaliran luarbiasa? Sedangkan Lembaga Atom dan Nuklear Jepun sendiri dipertikaikan kerana cuba menyembunyikan fakta kebocoran di reaktor nuklear Fukushima. Fakta tersebut membezakan taraf radiasi dan kecemasan nuklear dari 4 kepada 5 atau 6.
Radiopharmaceutical company's premises sealed due to radiation
KUALA LUMPUR: A radiopharmaceutical company in Selangor has been ordered to stop operations and its premises have been sealed by the Atomic Energy Licensing Board (AELB) for further investigation, after radioactive materials were detected on four of its workers.
Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili said the radioactive contamination was detected by AELB through a Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) system at 11.30am on June 2, after the four workers went to the AELB office.
"The radiation reading on one of the workers exceeded more than 400 times the normal reading (the normal reading is 0.5 micro Sievert/hour)," he said in press statement here Tuesday.
He said the four workers had gone through the decontamination process, with three of them at the National Radiological Emergency Centre at the AELB head office in Dengkil.
The other worker, who was directly involved with the radiopharmaceutical leakage, was decontaminated at the Malaysian Nuclear Agency, he added.
Ongkili said an AELB team also monitored the company premises the same day and found the contamination there at more than 100 times the normal reading.
"The contaminated area has been cordoned off to ensure the radiation does not spread or any radioactive particles leave the place," he added.
The company was also ordered to review its work procedure and to submit remedial action to prevent the incident from happening again. - Bernama
