Not sure what you're implying, but the amount of Li-on batteries contained WAS compliant with IATA regulations. Care to elaborate if you disagree with this?
Sorry Sedna kayej1188 is right.

Those IATA Packing instructions for Lithium Ion Batteries are a nightmare to read and understand. I believe after ICAO Malaysian conference this month they will get the heave ho again as the did last year temporarily.
UPS Flt 6 Dubai in 2010 and ASIANA Cargo Flt 991 in near Jeju Island 2011. Saw the amendment last year to change them.
Honestly, Lithium ion Batteries as cargo on pax aircraft in any quantity surely now has to be stopped.
