Apparently nothing, other then utter words no Singaporean wants to hear " There is "only so much" Singapore can do to prevent the haze from recurring, Minister for Foreign Affairs K Shanmugam " However, there are many things that the PAP can do. But whether they chose to do so or not, its up to them.

1) Prosecute the singapore based companies identified by the Indonesian govt. that have taken part in the forest burning. The PAP cannot feint ignorance now and claim they don't know who they are. For example one of them is Asian Pulp and Paper. What are they waiting for?

2) Identify the Indonesian companies that are participating in the forest burning. Although they are not based in Singapore, you can bet the major shareholders, upper management, etc of these Indonesian companies fly in and out of Singapore all the time. Arrest them at the airport. Prosecute them in a singapore court. Make an example of some of them. See if the rest of them in Indonesia would play ball after this.

3) See if any of these Indonesian companies have assets and bank accounts in SIngapore. Freeze them. Seize them as compensation. The PAP kangaroo parliament are very on the ball to past new laws and even make them retroactive.

4) Ban all visitors and work permit holders from traveling to singapore or working in singapore that are from these regions where the fires were started. They may not have been responsible for starting any fires. But they know people who did. SOme where along the line, one of their friends or relatives participated in this forest burning crap. Its time the whole region got punished.

Indonesia should have a bounty system or something like a crime stopper type system. Maybe funded by singapore. Report or apprehend a fire starter, even if you are a vigilante, and get a monetary reward. I am sure there are many more things the PAP can do. But, they are not.
