Singapore haze: PM2.5 readings remain normal, air quality moderate across all regions
Air quality across Singapore is expected to remain in the moderate range on Wednesday.
Indonesia and Singapore have pledged to cooperate on regional haze, despite heightened tensions over forest and peatland fires that have created a haze blanket over the country and its neighbors. Foreign Minister Arrmanatha Nasir of Indonesia highlighted his nation's "good neighbor" policy, which entails mutual responsibility and respect with neighboring countries, during Singaporean Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan's visit to Jakarta.
Balakrishnan, in turn, expressed Singapore's commitment to resolving differences and its confidence in Indonesia's future. The ministers discussed several issues for over two hours, with both sides expressing a willingness to speak candidly, especially when they differ. Arrmanatha emphasized that Indonesia's relationship with Singapore is mature enough to resolve differences constructively, respectfully, and openly.
Balakrishnan echoed this sentiment, stressing the importance of mutual understanding and a commitment to resolving differences.
