    • An Indonesian academic says ASEAN’s 2002 haze treaty cannot sanction companies behind fires whose smoke crosses borders. Malaysia plans to raise the haze at regional talks in Manila, while Singapore is using its own law to pursue companies over fires in Indonesia. https://news.theonlinecitizen.com/2026/11/03/indonesian-academic-says-asean-haze-treaty-lacks-power-to-punish-companies-behind-cross-border-fires   🌫️ ASEAN Haze Treaty — Lacks Power to Punish Companies       🎯 Core Issue   Irawan Jati, an International Relations expert from the Islamic University of Indonesia (UII), told Kompas.com on 1 November 2026 that the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution (AATHP) provides only a framework for cooperation — it contains no sanctions against companies or individuals responsible for causing fires that produce cross-border haze.       📄 What Is The AATHP?   - Signed: 10 June 2002; entered into force: 25 November 2003  - Ratified by all 10 ASEAN member states; Indonesia was the last, in 2014 - Requires cooperation in prevention, monitoring, information exchange and mutual assistance — but relies entirely on national governments to enforce - The ASEAN Coordinating Centre for Transboundary Haze Pollution Control (ACC THPC) exists — but it has no prosecutorial authority over companies or individuals       🇲🇾 Malaysia's Position   - Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan will raise haze at the ASEAN Foreign Ministers' meeting ahead of the 49th ASEAN Summit in Manila this month - He notes ASEAN's existing disaster mechanisms do not classify haze as a natural disaster, leaving it outside those response frameworks - Malaysia is not pursuing legal action or diplomatic notes — preferring diplomatic channels for now       🇸🇬 Singapore's Approach — Domestic Law   Singapore is using its Transboundary Haze Pollution Act (2014) to act directly against companies:   - Oct 16: NEA sent notices to 7 Indonesian companies — requiring them to stop burning, deploy firefighters, and submit prevention plans - Oct 19: Notices to 3 more companies over Kalimantan fires - Oct 23: Information notices to 10 Singapore-based companies regarding their Indonesian plantation operations - Oct 31: 7 Singapore-registered firms (including Wilmar, Golden Agri, Indofood Agri) agreed to cooperate with the Panel on Transboundary Haze assessment       🇮🇩 Indonesia's Enforcement   - Police named 20 corporate suspects on Oct 29 — covering ~29,169 hectares burned - 4 foreign-invested firms among them: 2 Singapore, 1 Malaysia, 1 South Korea - Forestry Ministry named 2 more suspects in Kalimantan, including one Singapore-invested firm - Business permits for 23 companies recommended for revocation       ⚠️ The Fundamental Gap   "AATHP represents a statement of joint commitment and concern that lacks binding legal effects. It does not even include sanctions for individuals or corporations that cause forest and land fires." — Irawan Jati, UII   Cross-border pollution is much easier to see than to prosecute — because proving exactly which fire caused which haze, and which company is responsible across a national border, remains legally and technically difficult
