Abstract
This paper discusses two important issues: one is the Malaysian government decision to go nuclear to meet the future energy demands and the other is Lynas Rare-earth project to boost up the economy of the country. It should be noted that Malaysia is not new to such experiences as the Asian rare-earth project in the 1980s proved very costly causing rash of birth defects, painful miscarriages, and leukemia cases because of radioactive waste. This paper highlights the needs that future energy needs and economic targets can be overcome through other sources probably investing in renewable energy such as solar, wind, and hydropower.
