The story so far

  1. Update 1

    Singapore’s haze probe reaches ten firms. The records must connect the dots.

    Information notices seek Indonesian concession, fire-control and corporate records. The test is whether those documents can establish responsibility—not simply identify companies connected to the land.

    Still open after this report

    • The complete recipient list, exact response deadlines, contents of the requested records and whether those records will support further enforcement remain unestablished.
