JAKARTA (Jakarta Post/ANN): Indonesia is battling an increased number of wildfires, and the haze they bring, as the dry season, which is expected to peak this month, intensifies across the country.
The Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics Agency (BMKG) warned that the country is expected to see less rainfall this year because of the El Niño climactic phenomenon, which brings hotter and drier weather to the Indonesian archipelago and prolongs the dry season.
