Albuquerque Santa Fe, NM, October 19, 2026 —
Singapore has issued preventive notices to three more companies in Indonesia’s Kalimantan province over links to forest fires, bringing the total number of companies targeted under its Transboundary Haze Pollution Act to 10.
The actions are part of Singapore’s efforts to address fires that cause haze affecting the city-state and neighboring regions. The summary of the announcement does not identify the companies or provide details about the specific fires associated with them.
The notices are described as preventive. No further information was provided about their terms, the evidence linking the firms to fires, or whether the companies have responded. The date the notices were issued was also not specified.
The reported action adds three firms to the group of 10 companies targeted under the Act. The summary does not say when the earlier notices were issued or whether any of the companies previously targeted faced additional action.
Singapore’s Transboundary Haze Pollution Act is the legal framework cited for the notices. The available information does not state whether the new notices include deadlines, require particular measures, or carry any fines or other penalties. It also does not provide an estimate of the haze’s duration or detail the effects on affected communities.
The notices place further attention on companies linked to forest fires in Kalimantan, but the information provided does not establish the role of any individual firm or describe the circumstances of the fires. No additional enforcement steps or outcomes were reported.
