Last update: 6 hours ago

Volcanic Disruption: Indonesia halted flights at several airports, including Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta, until 8.59am local time after ash from Mount Anak Krakatau spread across Java and Sumatra, affecting hundreds of flights and tens of thousands of passengers. Transboundary Haze Crisis: Malaysia declared an emergency in Sarawak’s Serian Division after air pollution hit very hazardous levels, with 647 schools set to close and authorities urging residents to cut outdoor exposure as smoke from Indonesia’s fires continues to drift toward Brunei and beyond. Brunei-Linked Mobility Update: Toyota Brunei introduced the all-new Urban Cruiser BEV, an electric compact SUV with up to 426km range, 172hp and 193Nm, unveiled at the Toyota Gadong Showroom. Regional Business & Policy: A Singapore summit on Belt and Road infrastructure backed SDG-focused partnerships, while ASEAN coordination efforts continue on haze management and cross-border impacts. Sports: DPMM FC’s defence drew praise in a Super League match against JDT, despite the tough challenge.
