A survey was posted on this site with the purpose to read and gauge how far the public accept nuclear as a source of energy. Ten questions were set for this survey.
Data had been collected from 15 respondents. 40% from the respondents do support nuclear and about 33% says they do not disagree with nuclear. It indicates more respondents are ok with nuclear power.
67% said the main concern about nuclear power is radioactive, 27% said safety and others said waste.
We could see also they are more concern on nuclear accident rather than nuclear armament. But they do believe that nuclear accident is something avoidable. The accident happened due to poor safety procedure employed by the Nuclear Power Plant operator. About 40% says it happened due to mechanical and human error.
67% of the respondents believe that we are constantly exposed to radioactive radiation even without nuclear power plant being built surrounding them and believe nuclear power plant could not explode.
The last three questions were set to ask their opinion is nuclear power is feasible in Malaysia. The result was surprising. Most of them agree to have nuclear power plant in Malaysia provided that Malaysia has got they very own expertise.
