We are facing a haze crisis in Malaysia, which is a air pollution due to the the forest fire in the neighbouring country, Indonesia.
This happens almost yearly with different degree of pollution level. Anyway, it’s the most serious one since few years back.
The index is surged to 204, which was a unhealthy level, thus the class stop in certain areas, like Penang.
Hope it will go soon.

That’s really bad. Glad that we had several days of rains and now it becomes better. I just checked, the API is 66 in my area. It didn’t rain for two days, I think.
Still not below 50, still unhealthy, in fact.
Glad to know that, mist is better thing:P
I had seen the news on tv about the forest fire in Indonesia that the smoke is reaching Malaysia.
So true, the East Malaysia like Bornoe is facing the worst haze.
The air quality is never good it seems, all over the world.
due to industrialisation?
No there is no such situation in my country
That’s great, glad to know that.
There is very little haze where I live. thanks for asking.
Our is due to forest fire, what’s the cause over your end?
These wild fires have become common place. We read about them every single day. Hope the situation will improve for you.
Glad to know that, mist is better thing:P
it is a huge global problem, I actually installed a weather station so I could know the air quality where I am exactly!!
Yes, how does the weather station look like?
There are many kinds, depends on what you want to measure. Some measure temperature and humidity. Others measure that and rainfall. Others also measure wind direction and wind speed.
