Haze Clip Receives Mixed Reactions from Indonesian Netizens
Published
A video clip aimed at teaching Malaysian children how to deal with the haze crisis has drawn considerable attention. The video offers simple guidance on how to protect oneself when the air becomes unhealthy.
Haze is often a problem in Malaysia, especially during the dry season. Smoke from forest and peatland fires in Indonesia is sometimes carried by the wind across the border and affects air quality in several areas of Malaysia. As a result, the issue has long been a shared concern of both countries.
However, some fans from Indonesia view the clip in a different light. For them, the video is more than just a safety guide. They argue that patriotism also means demanding that the government be accountable and act to address the causes of haze in their own country.
This difference in views shows that the haze issue remains an important topic in the region. So far, discussions on how to tackle the problem continue to take place among the people of both countries.
