This site is dedicated to
haze/smoke. It was originally set up as a result of haze(1997)
in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore,
Brunei and the surrounding region as a result of forest
fires from Kalimantan and Sumatra in Indonesia. Recently,
slash and burn practices in Indonesia (Sumatra)
has raised concern of another 1997 situation. (March 2000).
It seems to be happening yet again in August 2002 and yet
again in August 2005 and in October 2006. In fact it
seems to occur almost every year since. The current
episode is June 2013. This site will be updated, from time to time and retained as a reminder to us, as to what can go wrong if we are not careful. This site also shows that the we are not alone, transboundary problems can affect any country.
