Citizens fault officials over smog warnings
The shortage of PM2.5 monitoring stations blamed for lack of pollution alerts. The authorities have failed to provide accurate and up-to-date air pollution warnings to the people in the midst of the intensifying Northern smog problem, Chiang Mai citizens have complained. The administrator of the Chiang Mai-based citizen air-pollution warning Facebook page “@thailandgotsmoke”, Kittichai Kaewlom-bueng, said the official air-quality warning system was unable to properly warn the people about air pollution and the dangers to their health.
