COMMENT I like the song, ‘Haze, Haze, Haze’ . It looks like we are going to be forever facing this problem every year for the next century, despite all the intra-governmental forums.

Let me say upfront that I do not hope for a solution for our haze woes, even at Asean level, but at least, there should be a better mechanism in place to monitor the Air Pollution Index (API) and to keep concerned parents with school-going children informed of the Education Ministry’s decision to close the schools.
