How can the same El Niño cause drought in one part of the world and floods in another?
El Niño’s shifting ocean temperatures can disrupt atmospheric circulation worldwide – raising the risk of drought in some regions while bringing heavier rainfall and flooding to others.
With regional diplomacy and Singapore’s haze law offering victims slow responses, Indonesia’s own courts may be the most promising route to compensation. A recent procedural rule eases the hardest part of any haze lawsuit – proving whose fires caused the harm.
As environmental disasters increasingly spill across borders, timely and transparent crisis communication is becoming an important test of Indonesia’s regional leadership and diplomacy.
