Every year, Indonesia exports choking pollution to its neighbours and blames Bolehland for the perfidy.
At the root of the trouble is greed, the almighty dollar and corruption.
Large scale agriculture slash and burn practices lead to choking haze that blankets the skies for weeks and months and cause serious health problems.
Nobody cares, because it is cheap compared to using machines and excavators to clear land for planting, including for growing oil palms, etc.
There is no will to put a stop to the pernicious activities.
The Indonesian government makes the usual token threats to punish the culprits but nobody takes the threats seriously knowing that nothing will come of them.
It is the perennial merry-go-round, you blame me I blame you. And you see again next year, buddy!
Cheerio!
While people choke and cough. And die slowly but surely.
For greed, the almighty dollar and corruption ain't going away anytime soon. That is the sum total of human nature at its core.
Blame the almighty, if you will.
Hehehe

Kluang Town - Click To Visit
Kluang was a sleepy hollow, but is fast becoming a bustling town. You can't miss the bust-shaped gunung Lambak lording over the place and the town is well known for its tv brand coffee powder
Kluang RailCoffee
The Kluang railway station coffee shop, now re-branded Kluang RailCoffee, is well known for its cuppa of coffee and the charcaol grilled piping hot buns oozing with butter and kaya...It used to attract standing-room only crowds. It still does, but the last time I was there it wasn't a good experience for me. The famous coffee had somewhat lost its oomph and even the buns...The shop has a long and noted history being first opened for business in 1938 and the place is now run by the 3rd generation LIm family. I hope the next time I return, the coffee would regain its oomph. Click to read more...
