You mean that forest fires are causing haze in Malaysia? Did it get out of control or something?

It reached the danger level 3 days ago (I'm referring to 14th August), which is 500 on the air pollution index in two areas in Malaysia. It was caused by about 521 hotspots in Indonesia. The visibility at that time was less than 300m in some severe cases. The situation now is quite good already and the API levels reached lower than 50, which is the healthy level as the haze moved to Thailand due to the winds.

Malaysia blames it on Indonesian farmers I think, for open burning. But Indonesia pointed to the Malaysian plantation companies for starting the fire.
Malaysia then started an investigation on these plantation companies and found out that the fires were not caused by these companies because the companies use modern technology to clear the plants for growing their crops.

Firefighters from Malaysia and the other countries are now working with the Indonesians to help fight the fire. Singapore was fortunate enough to escape from the smog.
