Sarawak is grappling with a haze crisis, with multiple areas recording unhealthy Air Pollution Index (API) readings. As of the latest reports, Serian has the highest API reading at 198, followed by Kuching (185), Sri Aman (178), Samarahan (177), and Sarikei (151). The haze is attributed to transboundary smoke from Kalimantan's forest and peatland fires, exacerbated by hot and dry weather conditions. The Sarawak Disaster Management Committee advises residents to reduce outdoor activities and monitor API readings regularly.
