Singapore and Indonesia trade blame over worsening haze crisis
Original: Singapore and Indonesia blame each other for the haze while legal loopholes let those who profit from burning rainforest
An opinion piece in The Japan Times argues that Singapore and Indonesia are blaming each other for the annual Southeast Asian haze while companies profiting from rainforest burning escape accountability through legal loopholes. The piece highlights how cross-border enforcement gaps allow firms responsible for land-clearing fires to avoid liability, leaving residents across the region exposed to hazardous air every dry season.
Why now: Haze season has returned to Southeast Asia, renewing frustration over the unresolved dispute and lack of corporate accountability.
