Is there something wrong with you, health-wise, that would preclude you from using an N95?

If I can't breathe properly, I will get asthmatic attacks easily. The N95 is quite thick so the breathing part may be harder for me.

Tbh I didn't really wear mask because I just stay at home all day and leave when it's not so hazy like now.

Btw if it gets hazy again and you wanna check psi can use this: dropbox.com/s/vcsgwm1972cui9g/Singapore%20PSI.ipa

It may also be that Providence suffers more asthma attacks. I knew someone who was fine doing everyday things but only suffered asthma attacks doing strenuous activities in freezing cold temps.

If your next door neighbor burns something everyday, smoke goes into your hse, and it happens at the same timing everyday. Are u telling us u wun blame your neighbor, smile and tell him 'good job dude'?

This is a easy job as it happen same time every day. As in my message, this is fix timing as easy to catch. Just report to authority as you know it is sure to happen. I do not have to wait for several years to fix this.

In the end, it is always up to the Indonesian government whether it is willing to cooperate or not. Our government can only complain and request. There is not much we can do at the moment or in the near future. :(

While we are all very sure our ministers and government would not like to see the same haze repeating and they have tried very hard to 'persuade' their Indonesian counter part to do something, without the firm commitment, we know this problem is not resolved.

There maybe some other political reasons why a simply solution cannot be implemented. The bigger question is, are we sitting back and do the reactive actions as suggested? Have we exhausted all our means and have to 'embrace' the haze? To many healthy people, it may just be inconvenience. To others that need to survive and work outdoor, it is almost live and death.

If the hot spots can suddenly dropped before the summit, it shows they are man made. The farmers can never have the ability to achieve this. So our local newspaper please stop reporting 'farmers burning'. Identify the locations and link them to the plantations and their owner. It is for these owners to declare the spots don't belong to them. Let people know who are the ones having to defend most of the time.
