As following Governor from 42 fired point (hots spot) in Riau based on Indonesian Meteorology and Geophysics Directory, now remain only four fired point. That far has reduced he said. Indonesian government Jusuf Kalla is ready in aid to extinguish the forest fired. The fired Forest not National Park, but at Dumai is Forest Park Sepahat in Bukit Batu Regency. The fired location is far in center of forest so difficult to achieve the destination.
Smoky area is spread out boundary till cities around such as Pekanbaru, Duri, Bangkinang until Bukit tinggi had felt smoky air.
