- “Under the haze-related procedures, cloud seeding can be carried out when the Air Pollutant Index (API) exceeds 150 for three consecutive days, subject to suitable weather conditions,” he told a press conference after attending the 2026 National Climate Forum at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM).
