Who is Profiting from the Haze?

This year’s air pollution has been described as the worst since 1998. We get Dr. Helena Varkkey of Universiti Malaya to explain why it is so difficult to put enforcement mechanism in place, how President Joko Widodo is handling the crisis differently from his predecessor, how far Singapore’s legislation can reach, as well as some of the Malaysian companies implicated in the decades-long issue.
