The department says rainfall in several parts of western Kalimantan may help reduce the haze.
The haze in Malaysia was caused by forest fires in Sumatra and Kalimantan, says the environment department.
The department’s director-general, Wan Abdul Latiff Wan Jaffar, said the forest fires caused transboundary haze to affect the west coast of the peninsula as well as the western part of Sarawak. He said dry weather conditions are expected to continue in central and southern Sumatra as well as southern Kalimantan, with wind blowing the thick haze north-westward.
However, rainfall in several parts of western Kalimantan may help reduce hotspots and hazy conditions, he added.
