PHUKET: The air quality is fine and no precautions need to be taken, says the local environment office in Phuket, despite the thick haze blanketing the island today (Mar 19).

Parimet Jareonnoppakhun, an environmental expert at the Regional Environment Office 15 (REO 15), based in Phuket, said that the haze “is still at a healthy level”.

“The pollution is still considered as not problematic,” she said.

I was there a few weeks ago. Trying to escape the pollution here in Jomtien.

It was better in Phuket, but still very hazy. Anyone know the source? Local burning?

No, island wide haze is not local burning. Quite often from Sumatra, but also other options, check the wind direction.
