Measures in place for large vehicles

Air quality in the capital during the annual haze season should be more manageable than in previous years, following the introduction of measures to control pollution caused by large vehicles, says the Bangkok governor.

Speaking at the launch of the "Green List Plus" campaign at the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Chadchart Sittipunt said the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) is prepared for the haze season, which typically begins in December.

Mr Chadchart said he hopes Bangkok will experience fewer days when PM2.5 dust particles exceed the safe limit this year, after the city was declared a pollution control zone.
