Singapore haze has lasted more than one month, this was caused by Indonesia firms and farmers who engaged in illegal slash and burn practices, this is a way of inexpensively clearing the land, this year (2015) becomes more severe as someones says it is because of dry conditions caused by El Niño phenomenon make the fire spread more easily and widely, at the end of September, the PSI(Pollutant Standard Index) hit a record high with a reading of 341, the MOE announced the schools to be closed, it is said 2015 haze crisis has becomes the worst records in the region, even outstripped the 1997 haze crisis which loses 9 billion US Dollar.
For us living in Singapore, we tried to stay indoor all the time and keep all the windows closed, so recently I didn't go to swim, the air purifier machine I won in Watchdata D&D is very useful this time at home, we keep it running all the time, I have N95 mask with me, but seldom use it as I am driving to and back from work, other times I just felt quite uncomfortable to wear a mask, as long as it didn't get worse, I may not wear a N95.
Taken from my home window, haze shrouded Singapore, the construction site at right side is for a elder nursing home in progress
Same angle taken in year 2013 from my home window, clear sky.

2015年新加坡遭遇严重的雾霾危机,由印尼公司的非法焚烧行为引发,El Niño现象加剧了火灾的蔓延,导致PM2.5指数达到创纪录的341,迫使学校停课。居民采取措施减少外出,使用空气净化器和N95口罩应对污染。
