"Lynas won't be able to execute the Temporary Operating Licence for one week pending the application for a permanent stay," Tan Bun Teet of the Save Malaysia Stop Lynas told Reuters.

The Kuantan High court decision on Tuesday means the hearing for the permanent application will be held on October 4, he added.
