Although these few days Penang state was pouring with the heavy rain for several times, however it still cannot clean up the haze hazard air. Bukit Mertajam hill is in the blur view. Every where also like that condition, everything is in the condition of BLUR......rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr....................
If it is the nature fire burning...well ! everybody still can understand the situation but if it is the human error, so how to solve ? Are they well listener and practiser ?
No help for the public voices to protest against the open burning of the neighbour country, Indonesia. The selfish farmers claimed that it was the traditional way to clean the land, it will stop the burning after it fully burnt down. This type of burning is cheap and easy. What a sharing !
Indonesian government made a law for them..but...implementation was failed ! The people there ignored law ! All the 'open burning' banning, they don't care.......How many times Penang state was under the haze hazard this year? Did the neighbour country realized ?
Local people became unhealthy in this haze hazard, cough..running nose...allergic..eyes pain....etc. One of my friend even have to take medical leave because he is in heavy cough.
When the haze hazard will end ? Today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...month ? year ?

Haze in Penang
Haze in Penang state already remained for a few weeks.
So far, to wait for the rains to clear the blur vision is not helping so much.
Sometimes the visibility was bad but not in the alarming stage yet.
July 13th,2011 (Wednesday) API (Air pollutant Index) was 51 at 11.00 am for Penang island and mainland is 57 in Perai and 66 in Seberang Jaya.
The visible level is 7 km in Bayan Lepas, Penang islands and mainland 5 km in Perai at 12 noon.
Yesterday API went up to 95 in Penang island and the visible level was only within 2 to 3.5km.
No more fresh air but burning smell air.
Last week, Department of Environment spokeman did told the local people to wear face mask when going out, to drink more water and fruits, less eat the hot frying foods, do less outdoor activities, do not burn anything in open air and have more rest in the house.
Unfortunately, I saw one case of burning of leaves and rubbish on the roadside at Tokun, Bukit Mertajam while I was driving to town last week. Too bad, less care of the environment.
Yesterday Chief minister of Penang did announced that, action maybe taken for those who violate to burn any items in a big quantity in the open air.
He also urged the central government to convey the seriousness of the "haze" matter to neighbour country, Indonesia.
Stop the action of jungle burning for the plantation purpose in Sumatra.
Started to see some people walking to the private clinic because of coughing.
Below was the photo which I took from the famous Penang Hill on 29th June, 2011. The visibility was very low.
When the haze will go away ?
