Members Lucky Posted January 30, 2019 Members Posted January 30, 2019 The government this week closed 450 schools as the city faced a continuing toxic smog problem. The haze has been getting worse for weeks, the new says, but I don't remember it being there just 3 weeks ago.

Members kjun12 Posted January 30, 2019 Members Posted January 30, 2019 I live in Northern Bangkok and it is unnoticeable here but it is bad in the City center. I've been living here for 12 years and it has never been this bad before now. TMax, MsGuy and Lucky 2 1 Quote

TMax Posted February 11, 2019 Posted February 11, 2019 Looks to me that it's always at a certain time of year that it gets bad, I notice during the holiday period when a lot of people left the city for the 7 day break the air cleared up but then upon their return it got bad again, added to all the burning off of crops and bush-land elsewhere and it blowing intro Thailand doesn't help much Quote
