KUCHING: People with respiratory problems and those who are active in outdoor sports activities should consider staying home for the time being due to the haze.
Assistant Minister of Youth Development, Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah, who gave this advice, cautioned that the situation might worsen and hoped the people would take the necessary precautions.
“It is unfortunate, and we hope Indonesia will do something to curb this annual environmental disaster,” he said when met by reporters covering the opening of a halal cafe here yesterday.
“It is better to reduce activities outside.”
On the haze situation in Kota Samarahan, he said it was not as bad as the one on Monday.
“It (situation in Kota Samarahan) has not reached the dangerous or critical stage yet, but in the city of Medan in Sumatra, Indonesia, the visibility is very bad and very unhealthy.”
