haze. haiz.

okay. now for a slightly more serious entry. ok i hope you didn't take me seriously because my entries are highly unlikely to be serious. anyway, i am sure that everyone who lives in this little island known as Singapore knows that we are currently experiencing some pollution from another group of big islands known as Indonesia. it is known as haze. haze is generally bad since it is a form of pollution, which causes various health problems, including asthma, and my sinus, which is currently giving me alot of grief.

haze isn't a very nice thing to have. it is like having pollution which is caused by others put in your country. i am sure the indonesians are experiencing much worse but HEY, you are the ones burning trees on your high lumps of rock, and mud and soil, otherwise known as mountains. or is it the ejections from the lumps of rock mud and soil which spit liquid fire, otherwise known as active volcanos. well they are YOUR volcanos. so why are we sharing the pollution? it is just the way things work isn't it?

so the haze forms an oppresive aura around our clean and green environment. blue skies turn yellowish and greyish. the sun burns scarlet and i can even look at it directly. the temperature goes higher than normal. my sinus acts up more often and my nose sounds like a 100cc Harley Davidson. it is lucky we have lots of trees around that can clean up the air. but only to a small extent. this haze probably will stay until the winds start blowing in another direction. which i hope is soon but i am sure will last for a few months. unfortunately.

even more unfortunately is that it happens ever so often. and noone is doing anything about it. i, fortunately have a solution. it would be a collaboration between the government and Philips, which makes household appliances including electric fans. together, this project would have the construction of a giant electric fan. so whenever the haze comes, a flick of the switch and it all goes back to our dear friends who started this mess. of course this might be seen as selfish. but hey, it's the way things work isn't it?
