马来西亚将在即将举行的东盟外长会上提出日益恶化的跨境雾霾危机，寻求建立更强有力的区域机制，以应对邻国印度尼西亚森林火灾造成的污染，外交部长莫哈末·哈桑周一表示。
Malaysia will raise the worsening transboundary haze crisis at an upcoming ASEAN foreign ministers’ meeting, seeking stronger regional mechanisms to tackle pollution from forest fires in neighboring Indonesia, Foreign Minister Mohamad Hasan said Monday.
马来西亚国家新闻社伯纳马报道，该议题将在下个月马尼拉举行的第49届东盟峰会之前进行讨论。
The issue will be discussed ahead of the 49th ASEAN Summit in Manila next month, Malaysian state news agency Bernama reported.
莫哈末表示，现有的东盟灾害管理机制未能充分应对跨境雾霾问题。
Mohamad said existing ASEAN disaster management mechanisms did not adequately address transboundary haze.
“我们已经有一个东盟自然灾害应对机制，但雾霾未被纳入或归类为自然灾害，”他在雪邦对记者说。
“We already have an ASEAN mechanism for natural disasters, but haze is not included or classified as a natural disaster,” he told reporters in Sepang.
印度尼西亚已派出约6万人扑救火灾，但浓烟严重限制了空中灭火行动，莫哈末说。
Indonesia has deployed about 60,000 personnel to fight the fires, but thick smoke has severely restricted aerial firefighting operations, Mohamad said.
他表示，印度尼西亚官员已告知他，由于能见度低，34架飞机和34架直升机无法进行作业。
He said Indonesian officials had informed him that 34 airplanes and 34 helicopters were unable to operate because of poor visibility.
灭火工作还受到燃烧区域偏远、水源有限以及持续的地下泥炭火灾的影响。
Firefighting efforts have also been hampered by the remote locations of burning areas, limited water supplies and persistent underground peat fires.
莫哈末说，目前无法进行人工增雨作业，因为没有合适的承雨云层。
Mohamad said cloud-seeding operations were currently impossible because suitable rain-bearing clouds were unavailable.
他承认印度尼西亚在控制火灾方面所做的努力，但呼吁采取更有效的行动，并指出雾霾对马来西亚社区的影响。
He acknowledged Indonesia's efforts to contain the fires but urged more effective action, citing the impact on Malaysian communities.
由森林和泥炭地火灾引起的跨境雾霾反复影响东南亚地区，尤其是马来西亚、新加坡和印度尼西亚，引发了人们对公共卫生和区域环境合作的担忧。
Transboundary haze caused by forest and peatland fires has repeatedly affected Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, raising concerns about public health and regional environmental cooperation.
