Singapur e Indonesia crean fuerza conjunta contra incendios forestales

Esta decisión se enmarca en acciones iniciadas a principios de mes.

El 23 de octubre, diez empresas singapurenses del sector del aceite de palma y la silvicultura confirmaron haber recibido avisos de la Agencia Nacional del Medio Ambiente bajo la Ley de Contaminación por Humo Transfronterizo y manifestaron su disposición a cooperar. Posteriormente, la ministra del Medio Ambiente, Grace Fu, anunció planes para modificar la ley y cerrar brechas de aplicación, reforzando la responsabilidad corporativa por el humo originado en el extranjero.
