    SINGAPORE: There is "zero chance" that the region will experience the same bout of haze this year as it did in 2015, according to the Head of the Peatland Restoration Agency in Indonesia, Mr Nazir Foead.

    This is due to the determination from the government, palm oil and pulp and paper companies, and the community to make sure that steps are taken to ensure that fires do not break out on peatlands, added Mr Nazir, who was speaking at the third Sustainable World Resources dialogue on Friday (Apr 15).�

    The Peatland Restoration Agency was set up in January this year by Indonesian President Joko Widodo to restore about 2 million hectares of peatland that have been damaged by fires.

    It is a move by the Indonesian government to prevent fires from happening, which is a shift from a focus on mitigation efforts in the past.

    The agency is now in the process of creating more detailed maps to complement the�One Map initiative. This will be completed in the next two to three months.

    It is also urging companies to play their part in restoring peatlands, which is something touched on by Singapore's Environment and Water Resources Minister Masagos Zulkifli at the same event.

    "Agro-forestry companies should take full responsibility for fire prevention and mitigation in their concessions. There must not be a repeat, for example, of last year's fires... Companies should invest in efforts to rehabilitate degraded and fire-prone peatlands. Companies must ensure that sustainable policies and practices don't stop with them," said Mr Masagos.

    Restoration involves rewetting the carbon-rich peatlands, which burn easily when dry. The agency wants to create dams and canals to increase the water level in peatlands. It will also identify other types of crops besides palm oil that can grow well on peatlands, like the sago plant.

    Mr Nazir added the agency is in talks with the Singapore Environment Council (SEC), to consider including companies' efforts in peatland restoration as a criteria in issuing the Singapore Green Label certification.�

    "SEC has just announced that it is now taking it further and working on a new category for products with pulp and paper, which will include in its criteria the requirement for peatland management and fire prevention standards. When fully developed, I believe this standard will be the most holistic certification standard for pulp and paper in the world," said Mr Masagos.�

    When we were flying up to Ho Chi Min City recently just north of Sedili and south of Mersing you could see 2 or 3 fires and the smoke was all travelling in the direction of Singapore.

    I'd guess the smoke was below 1000 feet maybe below 500 ft so I'm not sure why that hot spot map above shows wind direction at 2500ft.

    After reading the words 'zero chance', rest of article to me was just blah blah blah ..........
    To me, the statement "'zero chance' it won't be the same as 2015 " means that it will be worse than last year

    NEA gets court warrant against haze-linked firm's director

    A director of an Indonesian company suspected of contributing to last year's haze did not turn up for an interview with the authorities here, even though he was served with a legal notice to attend it when he was in Singapore.

    But the director, who has since left Singapore, can be detained if he tries to enter Singapore again.

    The National Environment Agency (NEA) said yesterday that it has obtained a court warrant against the director to secure his attendance when he enters Singapore. It did not name him or his company, which is believed to have started fires or let its concessions burn.

    Forest fires in Indonesia produced acrid smog that shrouded Singapore, Malaysia and other parts of the region for weeks in 2015
    More

    Indonesia's environment minister lashed out Monday at Singapore for failing to show "respect" after the city-state tried to question the director of an Indonesian company over last year's haze outbreak.

    It was the latest row between the neighbours over the smog-belching Indonesian forest fires that choked Singapore, Malaysia and other parts of the region with acrid smog for weeks.

    The blazes are an annual occurrence during the dry season as land is cleared using slash-and-burn methods but they were the worst for some time in 2015, with Singapore particularly angered at what it said was Jakarta's failure to take action.

    Tempers frayed again after Singapore last month tried to call in the director of an Indonesian company suspected of being linked to the haze for questioning when the individual was in the city-state, Singaporean media reported.

    Jakarta is furious at what it sees as a violation of its sovereignty, and Environment Minister Siti Nurbaya Bakar stepped up the angry rhetoric Monday.

    "The most important principle is that cooperation is done with respect for each country's sovereignty," she told reporters in Jakarta.

    "What has been done by Singapore, in my opinion, does not show their mutual respect to Indonesia."

    Bakar said she was seeking a review of "of all issues of cooperation with Singapore concerning the environment and forestry".

    She also pointed out that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, a 10-member regional bloc that includes Indonesia and Singapore, had an agreement to deal with forest fires that was based on cooperation.

    Her comments came after Indonesia's Vice President Jusuf Kalla insisted that Singapore cannot take legal action against Indonesian citizens.

    The director of the firm called in by Singaporean authorities reportedly did not turn up for the interview despite being served with a legal notice and has since left the city-state. The individual or the firm were not named in the reports.

    Singapore is seeking to take legal action under a 2014 law that allows the city-state to levy heavy fines on local or foreign companies that contribute to unhealthy levels of haze pollution in the city-state.

    Singapore has also given notices to six Indonesian-based firms, asking them to explain what they are doing to put out fires on their land.

    Singapore to pursue firms over fires, despite Indonesian ire

    fire3.jpg

    JAKARTA (AFP) - Singapore is refusing to back down in its pursuit of those responsible for haze-belching forest fires in South-east Asia last year, despite struggling to bring the perpetrators before the courts and drawing a sharp rebuke from neighbouring Indonesia.

    Forest fires are part of an annual dry-season problem in Indonesia, started illegally to quickly and cheaply clear land for cultivation - particularly for palm oil and pulpwood.

    But last year's haze outbreak was among the worst in memory, shrouding Malaysia, Singapore, and parts of Thailand in acrid smoke and forcing school closures as pollution reached hazardous levels and thousands fell sick across the region.

    Singapore has served notice to six Indonesian companies it believes may have cleared land by burning but could target others as investigations continue, according to Singapore's ambassador to Indonesia Anil Kumar Nayar.

    "We are going after, to put it starkly, the bad guys that are causing this problem," he told AFP in an interview last week.

    However, the city-state's efforts to punish Indonesian companies under its own anti-haze law have become a flashpoint with Jakarta.

    Singapore argues that international rules allow states to take action - even if harm is being caused by activities outside its jurisdiction - but Jakarta has questioned how Singapore could pursue Indonesian citizens for prosecution, especially in the absence of a ratified extradition treaty between the neighbours.

    The latest sabre-rattling came after Singapore issued a court warrant in May to detain a director of an Indonesian company linked to the haze while he was in the city-state.

    Afterwards, Indonesia's Environment Minister Siti Nurbaya Bakar said that she would be reviewing her ministry's cooperation with Singapore on environmental issues.

    "Singapore cannot step further into Indonesia's legal domain," Bakar told reporters in June. Her spokesman declined to comment further on the matter when contacted.

    Nayar reiterated that Singapore wasn't crossing any line pursuing these companies and was within its rights to enforce its law.

    "We are not doing something that is extraordinary. It is not targeting any country, or anybody's sovereignty," he said.

    The law threatens local and foreign firms with fines of up to S$100,000 for every day Singapore endures unhealthy haze pollution.

    So far just two of the companies have responded to the court order, Nayar said, without naming specific firms.

    Singapore has repeatedly asked Indonesia for details about companies - such as maps showing who owns what concessions - but says Jakarta has not provided any information.

    Singapore would "continue to press", Nayar said, but added the evidence needed to prosecute these companies could be found by other means.

    "We could go that way as well, but at the end of the day this is part of a legal process. We want to be working with the Indonesian government," he said.

    One of Indonesia's main arguments is that a regional approach to solving the haze crisis would be more effective than individual action.

    "They (Singapore) know our view on this, on how we can best address this issue of haze through the Asean mechanism," ministry spokesman Arrmanatha Nasir told AFP.

    The Association of Southeast Asian Nations has an agreement to create a haze-free region by 2020, though it took 14 years to be fully ratified.

    Nayar says regional progress on curbing haze has been slow.

    Fellow Asean member Malaysia, which also suffers during the haze outbreaks, has expressed interest in adopting its own law similar to Singapore's to pursue errant companies.

    Jakarta has promised tougher action in the wake of last year's haze disaster, which turned skies yellow in Indonesia's part of Borneo island and dealt the economy a US$16 billion blow.

    The government announced in May it would no longer grant new land for palm oil plantations, and established a new agency to restore millions of hectares of carbon-rich peatlands susceptible to fires.

    Flight HAZE, arriving soon

    Some 300 fire-linked hot spots detected in Indonesia

    Almost 300 hot spots were detected over Sumatra and Kalimantan yesterday that were due to forest and land fires, and the number is expected to increase in the coming dry months.

    The figures were disclosed as news emerged of an interview given by the Singapore envoy in Jakarta, who said the Republic would continue to pursue those responsible for haze-belching forest fires in South-east Asia last year.

    "We are going after, to put it starkly, the bad guys that are causing this problem," Mr Anil Kumar Nayar told the Agence France-Presse news agency last week. He said Singapore was not crossing any line in pursuing these companies and was within its rights to enforce its law.

    "We are not doing something that is extraordinary. It is not targeting any country or anybody's sovereignty," he added.

    His comments came amid tensions between Indonesia and Singapore over the latter's decision to take action against a director of an Indonesian firm linked to last year's regional haze, considered to be one of the worst in recent history.

    The crisis affected millions across South-east Asia and caused more than half a million Indonesians to suffer from severe respiratory illnesses. Errant pulp and paper firms have been blamed for the fires.

    Satellites yesterday recorded 288 hot spots - 245 hot spots over Sumatra island and 43 over Kalimantan - Indonesia's National Disaster Management Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho said in a statement.

    The figure is small compared with about 3,000 at the height of last year's crisis, but he warned that the "potential for fires will increase" in the drier months of July to September. "Dry conditions, scarcity of water and difficulty in accessing the locations will make it hard to douse the fires," he said.

    Two helicopters and two air-tractor waterbombers were deployed to spray water from the air in Riau province, which had 26 hot spots. Troops, police and personnel from other agencies are controlling the blazes on the ground, he said. "Most of the hot spots are a result of intentional burning," he said. He did not say who were behind the fires but advised the community not to clear land by setting fires.

    Last Friday, major palm oil companies said they have ditched a landmark "zero deforestation" pact, saying the government's recent efforts to strengthen its certification standards were sufficient.

    The 2014 Indonesia Palm Oil Pledge, or Ipop, was hailed as one that would boost efforts to fight rampant deforestation, annual forest fires and choking haze.

    No use no use de, no way it can change the haze situation. Very sad.

    Maybe thats why they re-word our local ratings. Instead of good, moderate, unhealthy, very unhealthy, hazardous...

    Ours is up to 55 low, 56-155 elevated, 156-255 high, above 255 very high. The 'elevated' category looks wierd. It will mean that even w/o burning, we still get elevated levels. Over time, people will get used & numb to the elevated levels.

    Elevated could b the most common psi reading...

    In Sg, we are not familiar with AQI.� In fact, AQI has not fixed definition.

    If you are reading the number from AQICN, PM10 also has AQI of 29.

    Rather than saying AQI, the correct message is AQI of PM2.5 = 200.

    nothing to kaopeh about lah. Will never end one. Not in our lifetime, and never will.

    Just switch on your AP and wear your masks.

    Sadly, we can't retaliate by protesting in front of their embassy.

    Pray for more rain.

    By the way, that ex-general carries a lot of political clout hor.

    We can keep complaining the haze, but this is the kind of response we get from the Vice President of Indonesia.�

    Speaking in the VP's office on 26 August morning, Vice President of Indonesia, Jusuf said that the smoke caused by the forest fire which was blown to Singapore is something common due to the wind.

    He said that it is up to Singapore's Government to complain about the haze. "As long as there are lots of fire here and the wind blow to the north, the smoke must have reached Singapore. Nobody wants the smoke to reach Singapore. It is just that we can not control the wind. How do you control the wind?"

    Jusuf stated that the Indonesia Government has put in its maximum effort to put off the fire. He added that the Government has also conducted Emergency Operations which involved armies and armadas to detect and battle the fire. "We have deployed helicopters, aeroplanes, and people to put off the fire. The Government has done the best," he said.

    Asked about the complaints from Singapore, Jusuf only said, "It is up to them to complain. Whom are they going to complain to? Are they going to complain to the wind?"

    Indonesia should either ask the Philippines president to attach to the Indon environ team for 2 mth, or send in what is left of the army who is not corrupt (if any) and take down the mobs one by one, then torture and interrogate them to review who is behind all these, then go bring those people responsible in and do the same to them...

    Cannot believe a sovereign country allow this to happen.

    Indonesia environment team threatened with death investigating haze

    Police and a fire fighter from a local forestry company try to extinguish a forest fire in the village in Rokan Hulu regency, Riau province, Sumatra, Indonesia August 28, 2016 in this photo taken by Antara Foto. Antara Foto/Rony Muharrman/via REUTERS

    : Dozens of Indonesian men, suspected of being hired by an oil palm plantation company, threatened to kill environmental investigators checking on fires on Sumatra island, the environment ministry said.

    The incident illustrates the difficulties Indonesia faces tackling the illegal burning of vegetation to clear land for palm oil and pulp and paper plantations that causes clouds of smoke every dry season, which at times blanket the region, raising fears for public health and air travel.

    The ministry said a group of up to 100 men detained seven investigators for about 12 hours on the weekend and threatened to burn them alive and dump their bodies in a river at an oil palm plantation in Rokan Hulu, Riau province.

    The team was following up on satellite images showing "hot spots", or suspected fires, in a concession of PT Andika Permata Sawit Lestari (APSL) oil palm plantation company.

    There were "strong indications" the mob was deployed by the company, the ministry said in a statement.

    "With this incident, the investigation of PT APSL will become our top priority," Environment Minister Siti Nurbaya said in the statement, referring to both suspected forest encroachment by the company and the detention of the team.

    "The environment ministry will investigate this and take strict action in accordance with the law," she said.

    A company official, contacted by Reuters on Monday, declined to comment.

    The team was released only after lengthy negotiations involving police and after they agreed to delete photographic evidence and to leave behind two vehicles and equipment. The equipment and vehicles were recovered the next day.

    The investigators, however, managed to retrieve video footage shot by a drone showing thousands of hectares of forest had been burned illegally in and around the APSL concession.

    "As far as the eye can see, an area that was once peatland has been converted into oil palm plantation," Nurbaya said.

    Plantation companies drain swampy peatland before planting their crops and the dried-out peat is particularly flammable and often catches fire when companies set fires to clear vegetation.

    More than 450 individuals have been arrested in connection with land and forest fires this year.

    Under Indonesian law, companies found guilty of clearing land by burning can be fined up to 10 billion rupiah (US$735,000), and the management faces up to 10 years in jail. Companies that fail to control fires started elsewhere but which spread into their concession land also face punishment.

    Smoke from fires in Riau often drifts over nearby Singapore and Malaysia. Air pollution in Singapore rose to "unhealthy" levels late last month after a spike in fires in the area.
