Malaysian Palm Oil Firm TSH Resources Offers to Work with Singapore's Haze Assessors

Published 2026-11-02

TSH Resources Bhd, a Malaysian company listed on Bursa Malaysia, has voluntarily offered to take part in an evaluation of its operations by an independent assessors panel set up by the Singapore government. The company made the offer in connection with concerns about haze, the smoky air pollution that often reaches Singapore from forest and land fires in the region.

The assessors panel was created to examine companies whose activities may be linked to haze. By agreeing to engage with the panel, TSH Resources is allowing its operations to be reviewed by people who are not part of the company. This kind of review can help show whether a company's land management and fire prevention practices meet the required standards.

Haze is a long-running concern for Singapore. When fires burn on peatland and farmland in neighbouring countries, the smoke can drift across the border and reduce air quality, sometimes for many days. For this reason, the Singapore government has taken steps to hold companies accountable for activities that cause haze, and it has worked with regional partners to prevent fires.

The details of how the evaluation will be carried out have not been fully described in the available reports. Readers who want to follow the story should look for further updates from the company and the Singapore authorities about the assessment process and its timeline.
