  "account": "Singapore is experiencing a 12% drop in attendance at swimming pools and stadiums due to the haze, which has caused unhealthy air quality. The ActiveSG facilities have noticed a significant decline in weekly attendance, with some classes being cancelled. Park-goers are also choosing to exercise indoors. The central region of Singapore has been most affected by the haze, with PSI readings reaching 192 on October 9, the highest level so far this season. Health experts recommend limiting outdoor exercise to 30 to 60 minutes on hazy days and moving workouts indoors if air quality worsens.",
  "summary": "Warren Golf and Country Club in Chua Chu Kang has also observed a 20 per cent drop in weekly attendance due to the haze.",
