Weekend Singapore

Let’s use our mighty MRT to push the haze to 🇮🇩

September 12, 2019

    Some says, Singapore have 4 seasons too, and now we are in the Haze Session. Others are Summer, Durian, and Ponding.

    it’s the season that we wish it was another season called ponding as transboundary haze is once again, invading Singapore denying Singaporean the right to fresh air. While some crazy suggestion from our neighbour up north saying that they should use a giant fan to blow back the pollutant back to Indonesia, I think we should just reduce our outdoor activity and drink a lot of water. But if you really need to hit the street, there are some changes over the weekend that you might wanna know.
