【本刊林宏祥撰述】副首相纳吉今午主持内阁固体废料系统与环境委员会会议，会后回答记者提问政府取消武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划事件，始终不愿证实此事，只是重复说：“不谈武来岸垃圾焚化炉”（no statement on Broga）。
根据新加坡《商业时报》上周报道，马来西亚政府已决定终止在雪兰莪州及森美兰州交界的武来岸兴建备受争议的本区域最大焚化炉的计划，不过，政府迄今仍未正式证实或否认《商业时报》的报道。
纳吉（右图）今天下午三时在布城主持内阁固体废料系统与环境委员会会议，直到五时半结束，出席会议的内阁部长包括房屋及地方政府部长黄家定、能源、水务与通讯部长林敬益、天然资源与环境部长阿兹米卡立（Azmi Khalid），以及各州州务大臣和首席部长。
会议结束后，记者向纳吉提问政府是否取消了武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划，纳吉回应道：“不谈武来岸垃圾焚化炉。”后来《独立新闻在线》记者追问，是不是今天的会议没有讨论此事，纳吉再次重复：“不谈武来岸垃圾焚化炉。”
政府早在2003年已提出垃圾焚化炉计划，原定地点是雪兰莪州的蒲种，不过因遭到当地居民大力反对，政府将地点改在雪兰莪与森美兰州交界的武来岸。当地居民也是大力反弹，并且结合非政府组织的力量，展开联串反对行动。
武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划耗资马币15亿元，由日本荏原公司（Ebara Corporation）及本地的Harta Summa私人有限公司组成财团承建。

【本刊记者撰述】新加坡《商业时报》引述消息说，政府已经取消耗资马币15亿元的武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划；雪兰莪民主行动党今天促请房屋及地方政府部尽快说明，政府是否已腰斩武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划，以扫除当地人民的忧虑。
雪兰莪民主行动党宣传秘书刘永山今天发表文告说，政府取消森美兰州武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划的消息是从新加坡《商业时报》传出，迄今马来西亚政府仍未确认政府是否已决定腰斩该计划，还是继续进行。
“政府腰斩这项计划，固然会让受影响的武来岸居民雀跃万分，但是政府也同时面对承包商Ebara Corporation马币五亿元的法律诉讼。如果政府继续这项计划，那么政府必须准备面对人民的大力反弹，甚至是法律诉讼。但是，问题关键在于以下三点：
一、为何房屋及地方政府部没有在第一时间清楚交代此事？该工程目前进度如何？
二、政府会否动用公款，赔偿马币五亿元给Ebara Corporation？政府是否愿意公布当初和该公司签署的合约内容？有什么办法可以减少这笔赔偿？
三、为何这项消息必须通过外国媒体才能知晓？难道本地媒体得到禁令不能大肆报道此课题，还是政府故意不让本地媒体知道？”
刘永山认为，这项最新发展严重关系政府的行政和运作方面的透明度、公信力、透明度和效率；这项对巴生谷河流域居民影响重大的消息，国人必须通过外国媒体和通讯社的报道才得知，是不可理喻且非常讽刺的事。
“在这之前，政府在处理蒲种甘榜波何垃圾转运站课题上一直摇摆不定。这次，政府也是以同样的方式处理武来岸垃圾焚化炉计划。我们不能苟同政府一直以这种不发言不回答的方式处理人民的问题，因此我们希望政府能够尽早交待以上三项疑惑。”
“民主行动党重申我们的立场，即任何垃圾焚化炉必须建立在人烟稀少、原理集水区的地方，避免焚化炉释放出来的致癌化学物二恶英（dioxine）危害人民的健康和污染水源。”

M'kini: Broga incinerator: it's over, says paper

Broga incinerator: it's over, says paper
Aug 14, 06 9:27pm
The government has given notice to terminate the RM1.52 billion project to build the region's largest incinerator at Broga, Semenyih, Selangor, a project which from the beginning has met with stiff opposition from local residents and concerned citizens.
Quoting 'businessmen familiar with the project', Singapore's Business Times reported this evening that the government gave the project's developers two weeks to reply to a termination notice.
It said the local government and housing ministry had written to the consortium leading the project - Japan's Ebara Corporation and local company Harta Summa Sdn Bhd - giving notice that the project would be scrapped.
First suggested in 2003 during the government of former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad, the incinerator was first planned for Puchong, Selangor but fierce protests from residents there didn't allow it.
The government then chose Broga but met with even more spirited opposition which besides local residents involved NGOs, political parties, mass protests and the film community. The matter eventually led to the courts.
Project re-studied
Earlier reports had said that Ebara had submitted a RM500 million claim to the government over the stalled project's progress payments over a month ago. Local Government and Housing Minister Ong Ka Ting, when asked about this on Aug 5, said that he was not aware of any such claim.
Malaysiakini had reported on June 16 that the government was re-studying the viability of the project.
Responding to a reporter's question as to whether the cabinet had decided to cancel the project during its meeting on June 14, Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi replied that was not so.
"There is no decision yet. There is a need for a incinerator as it is a facility for the people but we are studying whether it is suitable," he told the press conference.
On July 15, Ong said that the proposal was still under study with the matter being raised in cabinet several times. He added cheaper and more environmentally friendly options had been mulled over by the cabinet
Dioxin emissions
Residents at Broga had mobilised against the project citing the danger it posed given that its proposed location was within a water catchment area and a gazetted forest reserve.
In numerous memorandums to the government, the residents pointed out that the large-scale incinerator would reduce property prices and have negative economic effects on Broga and Semenyih, effects which they said were irreversible.
They were also concerned for their health and well-being, citing dioxin and mercury emissions, among other known contaminants, from incinerators as supported by research findings in Europe and Japan.
The incinerator was to handle Kuala Lumpur's 2,700 tonnes of waste a day, which is more than the city's disposal sites can currently handle.
