Haze to affect SPM?

Confusing rumours have been circulating via social media and chat apps.

High Air Pollution Index (API) readings caused a number of schools in Malaysia to announce closure for a few days back.

However, the Ministry of Education are saying that there have been no subsequent announcements on their part regarding further day-offs.

As the haze is expected to last until November as El Nino stretches dry spell, there are concerns that SPM candidates this year would be affected both academically and health-wise.

"The number of forest and land fires still has the potential to rise until end-November," said BNPB spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho during a press briefing.
