It depends on how much burning is done in Indonesia.
Over last seven years there were two cases - in 2013 and 2015 when haze was so bad that 3M air masks run out. Especially bad situation was in 2015 when schools have to be canceled.
Since that nothing on that levels. Land cleaning via slush and burn was less in Indonesia and Singapore introduced serious fines for companies who operate in Indonesia and are found that have participated in burning.
So current haze compared to last levels is not that bad.
