Nuclear power a long-term option, not immediate solution, says DPM
Fadillah Yusof estimated that it would take 10 years before nuclear energy is implemented in Malaysia. (Bernama pic) PETALING JAYA : The government's stance on nuclear power is to treat it as a long-term option rather than an immediate solution, deputy prime minister Fadillah Yusof said today. Citing the complexity and safety concerns associated with the technology, he said Malaysia was still in the early stages of studying its feasibility as part of the country's future energy mix. 'We are not saying that we are going ahead (with it). What has been approved is that we will consider nuclear as part of the potential energy mix,' Bernama quoted him as saying at an international energy week conference in Kuching. Fadillah, who is minister for energy transition and water transformation, estimated that it would take Malaysia at least 10 years to implement nuclear energy. He said extensive groundwork was being carried out, including international benchmarking and regulatory planning. 'I've visited the UK, France and Russia, and we will also be going to the US, China and South Korea. We are analysing all available technologies, including the safety and environmental implications,' he said. Fadillah emphasised that nuclear adoption must comply with strict international processes and treaties, particularly with regard to the impact on the environment. 'Only after we sign all 18 required international treaties, and receive approval at that level, can we even begin to consider incorporating nuclear energy in our national energy supply.' He also highlighted the importance of public acceptance, saying that without widespread support from Malaysians, the nuclear option would not proceed. 'We must engage the public and secure their buy-in,' he said. Separately, Sarawak premier Abang Johari Openg said nuclear energy was not currently relevant for the state, given its abundant and diversified renewable energy sources. He told reporters that Sarawak had hydro, gas and solar energy, adding: 'With what we have, I don't think Sarawak needs nuclear energy.' He said Sarawak remains focussed on becoming a renewable energy powerhouse, targeting the production of up to 15 gigawatts by 2035 through existing clean energy sources. Abang Johari also said Sarawak was exploring energy production using hydrogen from water as a safer, cleaner and cheaper alternative to nuclear fission. 'We have the water resources to support it,' he said.

Law prohibiting appeals from dismissal of interlocutory rulings upheld
The Federal Court dismissed an application for leave to appeal brought by Ong Saw Yong, Chew Khor Teng and Phang Tee Yong, and ordered them to pay the government RM30,000 in costs. PUTRAJAYA : The Federal Court has denied three businessmen the opportunity to challenge the constitutionality of two legal provisions restricting appeals from interlocutory decisions. An interlocutory decision is a ruling issued by a court while a suit is ongoing, which does not finally dispose of the case. In 2022, the trio – Ong Saw Yong, Chew Khor Teng and Phang Tee Yong – filed a lawsuit in the High Court seeking to challenge the validity of amendments to Sections 28 and 68 of the Court of Judicature Act 1964 (CJA), which came into force earlier that year. Following the amendment, Section 28 bars appeals to the High Court from lower court decisions that dismiss applications for summary judgment, striking out of suits or pleadings, or setting aside default judgments. Section 68 prohibits similar appeals from the High Court to the Court of Appeal. Ong, Chew and Phang were defendants in a civil action brought by Pasir Bogak Sdn Bhd in 2021 to recover approximately RM14.5 million from a land sale. Their application to have the suit struck out was dismissed by the High Court in 2022, from which they had no right of appeal. They then brought the present lawsuit against the government, claiming that the amendments to Section 28 and 68 of the CJA violated their constitutional right to freely express their disagreement with a court's decision. The suit was dismissed by the High Court. The trio also failed in their appeal to the Court of Appeal. Today, a three-member bench led by Justice Nordin Hassan held that their application for leave to appeal that decision had no merit. The court also ordered that they pay RM30,000 in costs to the government. Also on the bench hearing the appeal were Justices Abu Jais Bakar and Vazeer Alam Mydin Meera. Lawyer T Manoharan appeared for Ong, Chew and Phang while senior federal counsel Ahmad Hanir Hambaly appeared for the government. The land sale suit hearing is scheduled to begin on April 6 next year.

Govt looks into US request to ease foreign ownership limits
Tengku Zafrul Aziz said trade officials were working to meet the new US tariff deadline of Aug 1, 'but not at the expense of agreeing to every request'. PETALING JAYA : The government is to consult industry leaders over a US request to relax the limits on foreign ownership of companies in some sectors, says investment, trade and industry minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz. Tengku Zafrul said the US had asked Malaysia to consider liberalising the foreign shareholding restrictions in force on some sectors. Many other nations have also received the same request from the US, he said. The minister said the government would need to consult industry leaders in strategic sectors to determine whether these sectors were ready for the caps on foreign equity to be lifted. 'We need to carefully study its potential impact,' he said. Tengku Zafrul pointed out that some sectors did not have such restrictions, while the manufacturing industry was 'nearly all open'. However, foreign equity limits are still being imposed on strategic sectors, he said. 'As you know, Malaysia has equity restrictions for foreign shareholders in certain sectors. There's a request for us to relook or liberalise those sectors. We need to consult those industries, on whether we are ready to relax those equity shareholding restrictions,' he said. However, not all the US requests would be accepted, he said. 'Some of the requests, we feel, may not be fair to Malaysia.' He said trade officials were working to meet US president Donald Trump's new tariff deadline of Aug 1, 'but not at the expense of agreeing to every request'. The Trump administration has said a 25% tariff would be imposed should talks on a trade deal fail. Flexibility on tariffs Tengku Zafrul said there might be room for flexibility on a sector-by-sector basis. 'There will be opportunities for us to negotiate tariffs below 10% for certain sectors. But at the same time, we cannot depend solely on this trade negotiation.' He pointed to the current status of key sectors such as semiconductors and pharmaceuticals, on which no tariffs are imposed. 'For example, pharmaceuticals are in a better position. Right now, tariffs for both the semiconductor and pharmaceutical sectors are at zero. Naturally, we want to maintain that 0% tariff, but whether we can secure it is another matter.' On the potential impact of tariff changes on the Johor-Singapore special economic zone, Tengku Zafrul said investors were holding off until there was greater clarity. 'There seems to be a wait-and-see attitude. Investors are watching how the tariff scenario plays out before recalculating their positions. That calculation can only happen once there's certainty.' Another discussion would be held this week, with talks to be accelerated until the end of the month, he said.
