In the recent 2013 haze episode, Singapore has been pressing Indonesian government to name those companies involved in illegal clearing of lands regardless of ownership. Singapore government has also considered extending extra-territorial jurisdiction, which has yet to be testified. There are many scholarships available that look into the haze issue in Southeast Asia but only a limited number of studies that focus on states’ behaviour on this matter.
