A friend of mine just phoned about the haze. He said schools in Malaysia had shut (KL I think). At another property in Singapore an expat heard the alternating siren from defence which (according to an announcement interrupting the classical music channel Symphony 92.4) signals go to shelter. The continuous sound from the siren indicates it's safe to come out.
I presume this means the haze, not some kind of international attack, although you might think it amounts to almost the same thing. When your school are shut, your sports events and charity runs are cancelled ...
In Singapore you can see people on trains and buses wearing the white masks bought from pharmacies. Some employers distribute masks to their staff.
A neighbour in Singapore told me he is now waking in the morning having to clear his throat.
