Daily Cuts - Mt Ruang volcanic ash disrupts flights in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore

It’s been described as one of Indonesia’s biggest volcanic eruptions in 50 years, prompting the evacuation of some 12,000 people in North Sulawesi province. Ash from Mount Ruang has since reached parts of East Malaysia, leading to the cancellation of flights in the area as well as  Singapore. But Marco Brenna, Volcanologist, University of Otago in New Zealand tells Andrea Heng and Joel Chua on Asia First that there’s a silver lining: no casualties have been reported.
