We may be looking at clear skies again but the haze that was once covering our skies was blown back to Indonesia.  At a point of time, the skies in Riau turned red and the government actually declared a state of emergency!

On 23rd September, the governor of Riau officially declared the province to be in a state of emergency after the state’s Air Pollutant Index (API) exceeded the 500 mark.

Whew! It’s really nice to hear that hotspots are being reduced. Let’s hope that it continues to do so!
