ASEAN Foreign Ministers to Address Transboundary Haze Crisis
Original: ASEAN Foreign Ministers to Tackle Transboundary Haze in November Meetings
Foreign ministers from the Association of Southeast Asian Nations are set to discuss the recurring transboundary haze problem during meetings in November. The haze, largely caused by agricultural burning in Indonesia that spreads smoke across neighboring countries, is a persistent regional issue. The talks will focus on cooperation and measures to reduce cross-border air pollution affecting millions in Southeast Asia.
Why now: Annual burning season haze typically peaks around this time of year, putting pressure on ASEAN to show regional action.
