AQI GOING UP IN MANJUNG

 The Air Quality Index (AQI) for my area as of 7.00 a.m. this morning was 141. According to the information I gleaned from the website, this is considered unhealthy for sensitive groups. As it stands, I had colleagues and friends having breathing problems, sore throats and eye problems.  Even the security guards in the college were wearing face masks.
Below are two photos I took at around 1.00 p.m. today.  I think the AQI would be higher now than at 7.00 in the morning as it appears to be hazier.
