"Singapore is ready to help us. I believe that it is necessary and appropriate as it is no longer a surprise to see its impact felt anywhere else in the region,” Vice President Jusuf Kalla said on Tuesday 15 September 2015.
"We will work hard, along with Singapore who is also affected by the smog, to deal with such natural disaster," he continued.
