Скачать или смотреть Kuala Lumpur health worries over thickening haze

(4 Oct 2015) Malaysia is to shut most government schools on Monday and Tuesday, as a thick haze blankets the country and the air quality continues to worsen.
Conditions in the capital, Kuala Lumpur, reached their worst levels so far on Sunday.
The Air Pollution Index reached a level of 283, according to the Department of Environment, which is the highest recorded so far and is considered highly unhealthy.
The conditions led organisers to cancel the annual Kuala Lumpur marathon, to the disappointment of runners and spectators.
The haze, which has affected the country for more than a month, is due to the open forest burnings in Indonesia's Sumatra and Kalimantan regions.
