JAKARTA: There has been no recurrence of transboundary haze from Indonesia to neighbouring countries, its Environmental Affairs and Forestry Minister Siti Nurbaya Bakar said on Sunday , as Malaysia continued to grapple with smog and a hot spell.

The Indonesian minister said on Sunday that efforts to fight fires were ongoing at all hotspots with an “integrated firefighting” method developed following the devastating fires in 2015. “We will not tolerate those who start these fires on purpose. We will continue to pursue the culprits and take stern action,” she said.
