PETALING JAYA: The Muar and Ledang districts in Johor are now under a “haze emergency” after the Air Pollutant Index (API) readings surged over 700 in these areas.
Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said the emergency status would remain until further notice.
“However, it must be clarified that this does not involve a curfew and there will not be any change to the existing system of the ruling state and federal governments.
“All related ministries and agencies at the federal, state and district levels must plan and take action to ensure the safety and health of the public,” the Prime Minister said yesterday.
He urged the people to abide by the emergency guidelines issued by the National Security Council (NSC).
