It will never change

Yep. Sugarcane stations are open, lorries and tractors are hauling their loads all day long.

 

No burning yet, but only a matter of days.

 

I checked the AQ about a month ago.....it was five times worse than central London then!!!! God only knows what it will be end of January.

I do have a air purifier in my day room, and bed room. Very effective.

I was walking the dog at sunset on the farm on Sunday and heard the unmistakable crackle from a couple of fields away, followed by large plumes of black smoke.

 

It's coming.

And I had such high hopes it was going to be strictly controlled this year.....555

 

"The Thai government has taken a strict stance against crop burning to combat rising air pollution, particularly PM2.5 dust levels. The PM has emphasized the need for cooperation among farmers, provincial governors, and authorities to eliminate the practice, especially during the upcoming harvest season, as it significantly contributes to Thailand’s seasonal smog problem".

I'm not staying long if this continues

Call the cops and demand a jail sentence.

Here they do not call the police, they go to the village chief to solve problems.

What can he or she do about it, nothing. The only thing these farmers nderstand is economic punishment or prison.
