Haze forces closure of schools in Negeri Sembilan tomorrow
The state's three API monitoring stations record unhealthy air quality, namely in Seremban (189), Nilai (184) and Port Dickson (170).
All schools in Negeri Sembilan will remain closed tomorrow due to the ongoing haze, according to the state education department. The department made this decision after monitoring stations in the region recorded API levels nearing very unhealthy conditions. As of 8pm, the API was at 189 in Seremban, 184 in Nilai, and 170 in Port Dickson, all indicating unhealthy air quality.
Educational institutions are now set to conduct online learning to ensure students can continue their lessons despite the disruption. Teachers and school administrators are permitted to work remotely during this period. The National Education Ministry has also announced that schools in areas with API readings above 180 will close tomorrow, while those with readings above 150 for three consecutive days will close starting October 12.
