There is also a growing likelihood of an El Nino weather pattern this year, meaning Singapore, as well as parts of Indonesia and Malaysia, could be set for months of intense haze with a knock-on effect on health and business, especially tourism.

A strong El Nino, marked by a warming of the surface of the Pacific, can cause severe drought in Australia, Southeast Asia and India, while drenching other parts of the world such as the U.S. Midwest and Brazil in rain.

I don't think this will affect the Chinese tourists, will make them feel like home.

Anyway they spend the whole day in the casinos and won't know the difference.

Don't worry we have the most advanced military in Southeast Asia but can do nothing.

please dun use El Nino as a fucking excuse of their incompetence in dealing with the Haze.. they are a bunch of useless fuck who only get taxpayers money and no idea how to deal with the problem..

i always wonder why sinkieland are so useless in dealing with problems. What is the use of having a meeting when you cannot even solve a single bit of a problem. A bunch of useless fuck.
