Singapore Air Quality Hits Season High of 181
Singapore's central 24-hour Pollutant Standards Index rose to 181 at noon on Friday, the highest reading of this haze season, with all regions unhealthy. The National Environment Agency said moderate to dense smoke from Indonesian fires covered parts of Malaysia, Singapore, Kalimantan and Sumatra. Officials urge healthy people to cut strenuous outdoor activity when hourly PM2.5 is elevated, and vulnerable groups to avoid it entirely.
