Bad air day in Malaysia!!!Cause haze!!




I hate haze!!It's a big problem in Malaysia....i don't like this feeling...bad air in whole day and i force to use gauze mask!!

The haze in certain parts of the peninsula was at its worst yesterday. And the bad news is that the situation will not improve in the coming days.
According to the Meteorological Department, the dry weather will continue until October.
Current wind directions are not expected to change until the inter-monsoon season in two months' time.
The only hope of seeing some haze-free days will be when the fires in Sumatra are put out, according to the department's deputy director-general (forecast) Dr Yap Kok Seng.
He said some rain could be expected towards the end of this week although the next few days would be dry.
Visibility in most parts of the Klang Valley dipped to as low as one kilometre.
The Department of Environment (DOE) has extended the ban on open burning to cover the whole of Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya with immediate effect.
DOE director-general Datuk Rosnani Ibarahim said the ban,however, does not cover cremations, burning of religious offerings and grills or barbeques.
Indonesia’s Environment Minister Rachmat Wioelar has appealed for help to put out the fires in his country.
“My ministry welcomes any help from any Asean member country to put out the fires.
