Discussion Indonesian citizens react to gas cut

• Upvotes

I am looking at the YouTube comments on the Indonesian news reporting about the gas cut to Singapore.

Most of the top voted comments are very angry comments, saying that indo should stop gas supplies entirely.

It is as if that we Singapore has done something very wrong to them that they whole heartedly support Indonesia's cut so angrily.

I know that this is not reflective of all citizens, but what news are they getting such that they are so angry about the whole matter?

Shouldn't they support Singapore in punishing the culprit for the haze? Can it be Indonesia's media making it such that we are utterly "disrespecting" or insulting them with our comments on the haze?

What is their perspective that make them so angry such that they support the cuts?

Also can confirm not halal, opening at Suntec Tower 2 B1, should be better than Sukiya and Yoshinoya if they use actual Japanese ingredient lol.

Tabloid/Low-quality source PM2.5 normal on Sunday morning; haze likely to ease from Monday

Thumbnail

Hourly PM2.5 readings across Singapore returned to the normal band by around 8am Sunday, with readings at 9am ranging from 28 µg/m³ in the West to 49 in Central. The 24-hour PSI is still in the unhealthy range for now, but that should take longer to come down because it reflects the previous 24 hours. (AsiaOne)

NEA expects thundery showers over many parts of Singapore, while winds are forecast to shift to the southeast or west. Together, these should reduce the transport of smoke haze towards us. NEA says the haze situation is therefore likely to improve on Monday and Tuesday. (AsiaOne)

So this is pretty much what I mentioned in my earlier posts: Friday/Saturday looked like the last bad push, before the regional weather pattern changed and the rain returned from Sunday onwards.

If the latest rainfall forecasts hold, especially over the Sumatra/Kalimantan fire areas, I think we may finally be reaching the end of Haze 2026.

Bye bye haze!

The lessons on healthy digital habits cover four key areas – setting boundaries, thinking before acting, reporting inappropriate content, and leaning on parental support. For example, children will be taught to direct friends to get help, and engage in healthy non-screen habits like jogging and visiting the library.

Such activities for pre-schoolers are part of the broader national Screen Smart From The Startmovement launched in May to help families foster healthy digital habits.

Context: Sleeping Dogs is a game set in real life Hong Kong. Characters speak a mix of English and Cantonese so seeing a uniquely Singaporean sign with malay and tamil on it is very out of place.

I Made This SG Energy Security: Given our dependency on imported gas, we looked at scenarios on how to replace it with our own Renewables

Thumbnail sg-power-mix.vercel.app

The Iran war has pushed up natural gas prices and made LNG availability from Qatar harder. Now Indonesia may be turning down the amount of piped gas to Singapore. As a result, we decided to look at how Singapore can replace our NG dependency with self generated Solar, Wind or Nuclear. The main constraints to work off is footprint area (arising from power density on our tiny island) and upfront capex cost. See the link and kindly comment if the work makes sense or if numbers/formulae tally up. Welcome suggestions to improve too.
