Dap Reps Want Action After Over 400 Covid 19 Cases 15 Deaths At Tangkak Factory


 



Two Johor state assemblypersons have called for action to prevent more Covid-19 related deaths linked to a microelectronics factory based in the Tanjung Agas Industrial Zone, Muar, Johor.
Tangkak assemblyperson Ee Chin Li, Bentayan assemblyperson Ng Yak Howe and Johor DAP executive committee member Lim Eng Guan in a joint statement today said operations of STMicroelectronics (STM) manufacturing facility had since mid-June to date led to 400 positive Covid-19 cases and 15 deaths.
They said the Health Ministry had on July 9 confirmed the "Persiaran Agas" workplace cluster, after a first round of screening, based on the semiconductor manufacturing facility's address.
"Now, we were informed that the number of infected employees already hit 400 excluding friends and relatives who were indirectly infected.
"Since last year, although some employees have been working from home, large number of workers especially those in the production floors continue to work on site," they said.
"Only when confirmed cases were detected, we were told the facility would partially close for a few days for disinfection," they added.
The Persiaran Agas cluster recorded 413 active cases as of yesterday, according to Health Ministry data.
Meanwhile, a Facebook post believed to be by a factor worker mourning the 15 deaths has been shared over 1,000 times since yesterday.
Malaysiakini's check on the post that also tagged Health Minister Dr Adham Baba found many comments believed to be by the factory workers and Muar residents who highlighted other potential related deaths and cases.
The trio pointed out STM's status as a multinational semiconductor giant listed on the New York Stock Exchange, with exceptional financial results in the last two years despite the global pandemic crisis.
They cited the company's annual report last year that recorded a nett income of US$1.11 billion (RM4.7 billion) on top of total revenue of US$10.2 billion.
"The current market cap of STM is approximately US$30 billion which is equivalent to RM126 billion, larger than Maybank which is the largest publicly listed company in Malaysia," they said.
Given its strong finances, the DAP trio urged STM to make public its mitigation plan to curb the spread of virus, taking into account its large number of workers residing across Northern Johor.
According to China Press, the Tangkak district health office had ordered the factory's production department to close until Aug 2.
Malaysiakini has contacted Tangkak health director Dr Rosila Yahya for comments.  - Mkini
