How can govt help Singapore people cope with the haze?
 letter from Tricia Lye Siew Wah

The haze is back with a vengence.

Productivity is down, medical expenses have gone up and tourists are put off by the air.

Yet nothing can be done about this perennial problem that has worsened over the years.

Are there measures the government can take to help Singaporeans cope with the haze and register our problems with the neighbouring countries?

How will the health of the next generation be as this problem persists?

How can we have world class events here when all our overseas visitors experience is the acrid smelling environment?

Help us to breathe easily again.
