GEORGE TOWN: All schools in Penang have been advised to cut down on outdoor activities if the haze situation worsens.

A circular from the Education Ministry released some time last week stated that all outdoor activities should be reduced or stopped if the Air Pollutant Index (API) readings in the area went above 150.
