  "account": "Selangor's Chief Minister, Amirudin Shari, announced that the state government will review follow-up measures to tackle the worsening haze situation during a meeting of the Selangor State Executive Council on Friday. The deteriorating air quality has been a cause for concern, as the situation worsened again after initially clearing on Sunday. Amirudin emphasized the need to gather reports from all relevant parties before making any decisions on appropriate measures. He also highlighted the importance of limiting outdoor activities and assisting children in schools due to their prolonged exposure. Six areas in Selangor, including Johan Setia, Shah Alam, Petaling Jaya, Klang, Banting, and Kuala Selangor, recorded unhealthy Air Pollution Index (API) levels, with readings ranging from 159 to 183. The API scale ranges from zero to 50 (good air quality) to above 301 (hazardous).",
