|Description=The lack of information due to the lack of studies in the area is one area that needs improvement. As a start, plans have been made by the Pollution Control Unit of the Medical and Health Department for two Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Stations (AAQMS) to be installed, one in the capital and the other in Belait District. The equipment intended to be installed in the proposed stations are capable of monitoring the required parameters continuously (24 hours monitoring). The Meteorological Services, Department of Civil Aviation also plans to expand their air pollution monitoring capabilities.
|SpatialResolution=Brunei Darussalam acknowledge the fact that haze is commonly experienced in the region during the South-West Monsoon season. Apart from localised incidents the occurrence of severe haze tend to be more regional in nature though severity of haze episodes may differ from one country to another.

 There is a need for a regional appreciation of the problem since it requires a regional approach to address the issue. Between the ASEAN member countries there are different level of institutional and technical capability. Therefore through cooperative efforts in information exchange and institutional strengthening Brunei Darussalam see the opportunity for both national and regional capacity building to address the problem of transboundary haze. In this regard Brunei Darussalam supports in principle the establishment of an ASEAN cooperative plan to manage transboundary pollution/haze as proposed by Malaysia.
