Thank you for highlighting the issue of ICI Agrochemical's misleading advertisement in Malaysian newspapers promoting paraquat as environmentally friendly (Multinational Monitor, June 1993).
We protested to the Pesticides Board in Malaysia against the misleading advert and the Board has asked ICI to withdraw the advert. The advert no longer appears in our local newspapers.
Yours faithfully,
S.M. Mohd Idris, JP
