This is an image made in 2010 of haze-caused low visibility during the day along the Klang Valley's Kesas highway. If you're anywhere in the area today, look out the window and you won't find the view changed much.
Once again, the haze has descended upon us like a grey blanket, contaminating our air and infiltrating deep into our bodies. It’s so habitual that for some of us, it’s almost a ho-hum business. Same old, same old every year, yeah?
There hasn’t been much traction since I first reported on the haze back in the early 1990s. Once again, the issue was discussed by Asean members – a sub-regional ministerial meeting was held this week in Brunei. I didn’t hold my breath with anticipation over the outcome.
