      Something to think about.


      Nuclear power is being considered by SG gahmen as an alternative power source.
      It is understudy n still a long way to being built.
      If it comes to pass dat a decision to build or not to build is ask of u,
      Would u agree to build one on SG soil?
      SG is all of ~ 700 sq km in area; ~ 42 km at its longest lengthwise n ~ 22 km at its widest breadthwise.
      Where would d nuclear plant be located?
      If there is a nuclear disaster, where can we run to?
      Wat if Malaysia decides to build one at Pasir Gudang just across d Johor Straits?

        Even before the tragedy in Jap, I did not want SG to build one. Sure there's no earthquake but there's always human error. I mean even a poor village in India can build and depend on solar energy, why can't we, ok we will use much more energy than a village in India but surely there's a solution. If need nuclear energy to maintain our lifestyle, I will give up my air-con, my TV, my water heater, my electric fan, half the time I spend on computer... As for Malaysia, hopefully, they have more sense

          Some paraniod questions, if tap water is not safe for babies, then how about the breastmilk from mothers? Breastfeeding mothers drink the tap water, won’t some of the radiation pass to the breastmilk, rending it unsafe too? Does that mean must drink imported distilled water? But will items imported into the area be affected by the radiation too?

            It's still better than the unsafe tap water.

                After seeing the nuclear crisis in Japan, I am definitely NOT for a nuclear plant in SG. Like SAHM_TAN says, you never know human error, the dire consequences of such a disaster in SG is too scary to even think abt.


                If I'm not mistaken, Msia is already planning or in process of building nuclear plants. 🙏

                  well Malaysia is not the only one considering. I read in papers few days ago that Indo has plans to build a plant too, and it apparently is to be situated in a region known for quakes…now I’m quaking…

                        It's unfortunate location.
