Grace Fu on preparedness for transboundary haze
Hotspot activity could increase in the coming weeks and result in hazy conditions in Singapore. Regional and bilateral cooperation is essential to address transboundary haze, and Singapore is committed to this effort. Sustainability and the Environment Minister Grace Fu, who said this in reply to an MP’s questions in parliament on Thursday (Feb 12), pointed out that Singapore’s 24-hour PSI readings have remained in the good to moderate range this year. Should the haze situation worsen, the Haze Task Force will implement measures to safeguard public health, she added.
