This is what VP Kalla repeated in the APEC meeting :-
At the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) CEO summit last month, Mr Kalla reiterated his comments. "Ten months every year, the good weather goes to our neighbours. You enjoyed it, we did not ask you to pay for it. But if there's some bad problem, it is our problem to the region too."
He also blamed the wind for the haze blanketing the region: "I'm so sorry to Malaysia and Singapore to say that we cannot control the wind. We don't want the haze to go everywhere. (It happened) not because we want it to (affect) our neighbours, but because of the wind," he said.
