PASSENGERS on flights from Japan to Malaysia being scanned for radiation contamination have so far tested negative, said a source from the Atomic Energy Licensing Board (AELB) yesterday.
This means the radiation levels that the passengers had been exposed to in Japan were within the safety limits set by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The AELB started scanning passengers, aircraft and luggage coming in from Japan for radiation contamination since Monday.
According to the source, contaminated individuals will be treated at the Malaysian Nuclear Agency in Bangi, Selangor.
