Darkness Comes And Goes

Still Dark
The haze actually lifted in the morning, increasing visibility to a little more than 1km as compared to yesterdays horror. That is the INTAN building in the distance. About 250 schools have closed today and are to close tomorrow too. However, at about 1pm, the winds shifted and the haze is back, blanketing the city again in thick smoke. Even the smell is in every building, air-conditioned or not. Quite a number of minor accidents also occurred due to poor visibilty. I noticed that the postman in my area does not wear a mask. I hope Pos Malaysia will remind their personnel to wear them as well as provide the masks. Today, many people have slammed the Indonesians over the haze. We are tired of helping them douse their own fires as reoccurence is the thanks we get. So what if they have the death penalty for the culprits? No one seems to be executed just yet and the fires rage on. KL has offered to send help. Hopefully the Indonesians have a change in attitude and cease to let us suffer because of their people's inconsiderate actions.

Genius!
This is a really good idea by him to keep from breathing in the unhealthy air! =) It should be marketed. Really.
