Haze probe: Five Singapore-registered companies agree to engage assessors

This will help establish whether they are connected to fires in Indonesia linked to the haze, says NEA

Five Singapore-registered companies have agreed to cooperate with a specialist panel that will examine and hold them accountable for potential connections to regional fires that led to transboundary haze in Indonesia. The National Environment Agency (NEA) met representatives from Wilmar International, Golden Agri-Resources, APP Company, APP Company (China), Indofood Agri Resources, and Kencana Agri, who have all agreed to engage assessors and participate in the assessment process.

The companies' voluntary participation will help establish the facts and determine if they have any involvement in or connection with the fires in Indonesia that caused or contributed to transboundary haze affecting Singapore.
