Here comes DAPSY for the anti-Lynas rally!

(Ipoh, 25.02.2012)

A bus of 60 members, led by the Democratic Action Party Socialist Youth (DAPSY) Perak chief, YB Wong Kah Woh headed to the Kuantan anti-Lynas assembly under the banner of DAPSY. DAPSY was open to the participation from all Perakians for the two-day trip.

Wong said, after much preparation and hard work by everyone of nearly three weeks, DAPSY succeeded in recruiting more than 60 party members and public to join in support and the response is very encouraging. In addition to the two buses arranged by DAPSY, many other members will be joining by car, which will bring the total number of members to anti-lynas gathering to more than a hundred.

Wong said that the People is left with no choice but a mass gathering and protest to put pressure on the BN government to listen to the People. The people are prepared to fight and defend their rights as well as the rights of the next generation as the government is bent on the construction of the controversial Lynas rare earth plants.

“At the first place, why should the plant be set up in Malaysia? We want to let the people of Kuantan know that they are not alone in the battle against lynas!”

Wong also pointed out that the DAPSY delegation to the huge rally is in order to give support and encouragement to the people of Kuantan. It is a show of action that DAPSY is very determined.
