Thousands stranded at Ipoh airport


PETALING JAYA: More than a thousand air travellers were left stranded at the Sultan Azlan Shah (LTSAS) airport in Ipoh, Perak, as flights were cancelled due to the worsening haze blanketing the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia and west Sarawak.

The haze also prevented fishermen in the state’s Manjung district from going out to sea due to safety concerns over low visibility.
