Air quality and haze management in Makassar

Overview

In Makassar, Mayor Munafri Arifuddin is monitoring haze pollution and atmospheric conditions in coordination with the Sultan Hasanuddin Class I Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics Agency (BMKG). Although BMKG reports that haze levels have decreased compared to previous periods, the municipal government remains on high alert.

To protect public health, the Mayor has inspected healthcare readiness at RSUD Daya Makassar to prepare for potential increases in Acute Respiratory Infection (ISPA) cases. During these inspections, the Mayor distributed masks and instructed the Health Office to ensure medical facilities can handle increased patient loads. Current hospital reports indicate no significant spike in respiratory patients.
