东盟将讨论跨境烟霾:印尼林火为11年来最严重,马来西亚多州学校停课

吉隆坡——马来西亚外交部长 Mohamad Hasan 表示,他将在下月马尼拉东盟峰会的筹备过程中亲自提出跨境烟霾问题,推动东盟层面讨论应对。印度尼西亚今年林火为11年来最严重,烟霾飘散至马来西亚,多州学校停课,柔佛州部分学校的停课安排延续至10月23日。马来西亚此前已向印尼提出,可派消防力量协助灭火。烟霾是东南亚多年的区域环境议题,旱季时印尼烧芭与泥炭地火灾产生的烟尘常随风影响马来西亚、新加坡等邻国。
ASEAN to Discuss Transboundary Haze as Indonesian Fires, Worst in 11 Years, Close Schools in Malaysia
KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysia's Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan has said he will personally raise transboundary haze in ASEAN discussions ahead of next month's summit in Manila. Indonesia's fires this year are the worst in 11 years, and smoke drifting into Malaysia has closed schools in several states, with closures in parts of Johor running through October 23. Malaysia has previously offered to send firefighters to help Indonesia tackle the blazes. Haze is a long-running regional issue in Southeast Asia: in the dry season, smoke from land-clearing and peat fires in Indonesia regularly drifts over Malaysia, Singapore and other neighbours.
