What happened
Coastal fishermen in Johor have continued working despite challenges from haze that began in late August. Nasir, a fisherman, reported that the mid-September to mid-October period was the most difficult, with the air pollutant index hitting unhealthy levels. Poor visibility at sea, sometimes less than 200m, makes it difficult for fishermen to predict weather events like thunderstorms or heavy rain.
