This year’s haze is set to cost Singapore more than 2015’s S$1.83 billion. Who pays for the losses?
Economists suggest the 2026 haze will cost Singapore more than the 2015 episode, while other estimates state that Malaysia is losing RM20 million (US$4.9 million) to RM50 million (US$12.3 million) a day. Seven companies have been served notices under Singapore's Transboundary Haze Pollution Act.
Despite the absence of an explicit constitutional right to a healthy environment, former Malaysian Bar Council president Ambiga Sreenevasan said the courts are becoming more receptive to public interest litigation, strengthening avenues for citizens to seek accountability over environmental and climate-related decisions.
Former environment minister Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad warned prolonged delays to Malaysia's climate change bill and carbon pricing risk undermining investor confidence, while other panellists called for climate change to be treated as a national security issue and greater investment in adaptation.
