Singapore to ratify long-delayed Asean haze centre agreement ahead of 2027 chairmanship
Minister for Sustainability and the Environment Grace Fu said Singapore will ratify the treaty creating Asean’s haze coordination centre and work to strengthen the region’s haze agreement when the city-state chairs the bloc in 2027.
Energy minister Bahlil Lahadalia’s warning came as Singapore and Malaysia stepped up pressure on Jakarta over the haze, a day after President Prabowo Subianto hit back at countries that "insult" Indonesia.
