Sunny days, rainy days and hazy days

It's time to clear new lands in Sumatra. The dry weather is perfect for burning. Hey, the CPO is almost RM1700. There is money to be made from oil palm.

Malaysia used to have two kinds of weather, sunny days or rainy days. Now we have hazy days. There is nothing we can do about this burning until all the forest has been cleared in Sumatra. With so many poor and hungry people in that island, we should expect more burnings. Moreover, Sumatra is a big island, so expect it to last a long time.

If you can't stand the hazy condition, then it is time to go for a vacation. Yup, Europeans go vacation during summer to escape the heat. Malaysian (and also Singaporeans) go vacation to escape the haze. If you have not plan for vacation, then remember that when the next Matta fair comes.
