Malaysian Meteorological Department director-general Muhammad Helmi Abdullah said there were 119 hotspots in Kalimantan and 121 in Sumatra on Sunday, as captured by the Asean Specialised Meteorological Centre satellite images.
The hourly Air Pollutant Index of the Environment Department listed Nilai in Negeri Sembilan and Larkin in Johor as the worst hit. Both recorded 155 API readings, followed by Bukit Rambai in Melaka at 153, Cheras in Kuala Lumpur and Negeri Sembilan’s seaside resort town of Port Dickson at 152.
