Regional Haze: Indonesian forest and peat fires have spread thick smog across Southeast Asia, including Brunei; Malaysia has reported school closures and a rise in respiratory cases. Malaysian safety officials urged employers to improve ventilation and use air filters to limit workers’ exposure.

Residents and Indigenous groups are also seeking legal action over the government’s response to recurring fires and haze.
