If we remember back in 2011 in Japan. What happen to the residents of a country that has nuclear power plant if nature catastrophe or natural disaster occurs?
A safety measures has been put by the world relating to nuclear power plant. As matter of fact, during the Japan disaster, many countries come to help and as the result, the disaster was totally under control, no doubt about it.

Will the radiation leak of nuclear power plant can be controlled if its occurred?
Remember disaster happen in Chernobyl, Ukraine back in 1985 when one of the reactor suffered power increase and leading to explosion in its core and as the result, explosion and fire from the nuclear power plant released large quantities of radioactive contamination into the atmosphere that create very bad radiation even throughout 100 miles from the reactor.

It’s a sad thing happen back in 1986, the history shall not be repeated. As can be seen in Tsunami 2011 Japan, with tighter safety measures has been straighten up, it’s a compulsory to make sure the technical error will not ever happen, to make sure the technology will not harm people again.

How about the cost? Because from research, even the decommissioning will be around RM 1 Billion to do so?
If we calculate everything and take everything into account, the per kW/h for nuclear is cheaper compare to any other type of power plant. For long term, it will give back the profit to the electricity provider and citizens. Plus, Malaysia needs to increase the electricity capacity to attract investors to Malaysia.
