[00:02:01] again. In fact, many of
[00:02:13] Good afternoon, this is Headland News at 4 PM Western Indonesia Time, I am Anggi Hasibuan,
[00:02:17] viewers, the Election Organizers' Honorary Council or DKP received
[00:02:21] two complaints regarding alleged violations of the election organizers' code of ethics
[00:02:24] following factual findings in the Constitutional Court trial
[00:02:27] which concluded that there was no document. stating that Vice President
[00:02:31] Gibran graduated from high school.
[00:02:34] Two complaints related to alleged violations of the election organizers' code of ethics
[00:02:37] were received by DKP at different times,
[00:02:40] people have been namely on Thursday, October 8 and Friday, October 9,
[00:02:42] 2026. The first complaint was submitted by the Indonesian
[00:02:46] Law Students Association (Permahi) which complained about the Chairman
[00:02:50] and five members of the Indonesian KPU for the
[00:02:52] 2022-2027 period.
[00:02:55] While the second complaint was submitted by the Dewi
[00:02:58] Keadilan Foundation. Which complained about 11 election organizers
[00:03:01] consisting of 6 KPU RI leaders and 5
[00:03:05] Bawaslu RI leaders. DKP stated that it highly
[00:03:08] respects parties who submit complaints of alleged violations of the election
[00:03:12] organizers' code of ethics and confirmed that all complaints are always
[00:03:15] followed up in accordance with the prevailing laws and regulations. Two complaints will be
[00:03:19] immediately processed in administrative verification. If the results meet the requirements, it will
[00:03:22] be continued to the stage of material
[00:03:25] verification. Complaints that meet the requirements
[00:03:29] in material verification will be submitted
[00:03:32] as a case and given a case registration number to be scheduled for
[00:03:36] examination
[00:03:40] from me and my friends, namely, what's in
[00:03:44] tennis is
[00:03:59] right? The Constitutional Court's decision on the hot potato of the Vice President
[00:04:02] Gibran's diploma controversy rolled into parliament. The legal counsel for the plaintiff
[00:04:05] for Gibran's diploma, Ahmad Khazinuddin, asked the DPR to review
[00:04:09] the ID complaint through the applicable constitutional
[00:04:13] mechanism. Ahmad
[00:04:16] Khazinuddin claimed that the DPR could consider
[00:04:19] the right to state an opinion without having to go through the right of inquiry. However,
[00:04:23] this step is still a proposal from the complainant. Khazinuddin
[00:04:27] explained that the complaint submitted covers two aspects.
[00:04:36] namely allegations of legal issues related to educational equivalence documents and questions regarding the fulfillment of vice presidential office requirements. His party stated that reports related to these
[00:04:40] documents have also been submitted to Barri and
[00:04:43] are still awaiting follow-up. According to Hozinuddin, the DPR
[00:04:47] needs to review the ID complaint in accordance with constitutional
[00:04:49] authority.
[00:04:55] uh, our political party leaders are regulated in articles
[00:04:58] 7a, 7b, 8. and so on, who have the authority are
[00:05:02] actually the DPR, starting with the right of inquiry, namely
[00:05:05] conducting an investigation into public matters that
[00:05:08] need to be revealed by the DPR, but in our opinion...
[00:05:12] The DPR no longer needs to carry out the right of inquiry because the investigation has
[00:05:16] been carried out by the Constitutional Court and the violation has been found by the Constitutional Court
[00:05:19] in the form of the Vice President no longer fulfilling the requirements. So, in our opinion,
[00:05:23] through this letter we sent, the DPR should immediately escalate it to
[00:05:26] what is called an HMP, the right to state an opinion,
[00:05:30] that the DPR states that the President violated, uh, the Vice
[00:05:34] President violated the constitution because he no longer fulfilled the requirements, then
[00:05:37] it was authorized by the Constitutional Court, and then in Article
[00:05:40] 8, it was followed up with a trial.
[00:06:20] Brought to you by,
[00:06:24] Civet coffee, delicious coffee, comfortable to drink.
[00:06:40] Thick, yellowish haze due to forest
[00:06:43] and land fires covered Kotawaringin Timur Regency, Central Kalimantan.
[00:06:47] This condition has put the air quality in Kotim into the dangerous category.
[00:07:01] The Constitutional Court's Honorary Council stated that there were six reports of alleged
[00:07:04] ethical violations involving nine constitutional judges related to
[00:07:08] the dispute over the Vice President's diploma in hell. Three reports
[00:07:11] were declared dismissed, but the other three reports are still being processed.
[00:07:31] The conflict between the Houthi group in Yemen and Saudi Arabia escalated, after
[00:07:35] previously on Saturday, the Houthis launched an attack on Riyadh airport, killing
[00:07:38] 12 people. On Sunday, the Houthis
[00:07:42] again launched an attack on Riyadh Airport, one person was reported dead and dozens
[00:07:46] more were injured.
[00:08:12] In addition to the three main news stories, our editorial team has also prepared
[00:08:16] several other updated information, and here is the full metro day with Angipua.
[00:08:45] Our children's lungs and their educational future are at stake.
[00:09:13] Forest and land fires in Tanjung Puting National Park, West Kotawaringin,
[00:09:16] Central Kalimantan continue to spread. The affected area is estimated
[00:09:20] to reach 54,000 hectares, while extinguishing efforts are still
[00:09:23] hampered by limited personnel and equipment
[00:09:25] as well.
[00:09:29] Fire burned the Tanjung Puting National Park area from two
[00:09:33] sides, the increasing extent of the fire makes extinguishing efforts
[00:09:36] more challenging. The government
[00:09:39] of West Kotawaringin regency prioritized three areas. that are the
[00:09:42] biggest contributors to smoke, namely the Pangkalan Bun-Kotawaringin
[00:09:46] Lama road, Tanjung Putri village and the Tanjung
[00:09:50] Puting National Park area. Limited personnel and
[00:09:53] equipment are obstacles to extinguishing efforts on the ground, therefore
[00:09:56] the local government requests support from the central government to immediately overcome
[00:10:00] the spreading fires.
[00:10:14] Thick smoke haze from forest and land fires engulfed the Trans
[00:10:17] Kalimantan southern route in Palangkaraya, Central Kalimantan.
[00:10:21] The smoke made the air appear yellowish with visibility below
[00:10:25] 100 meters, endangering road users.
[00:10:27] jalan,
[00:10:36] Smoke haze covered Jalan Mahir Mahar Trans-Kalimantan
[00:10:40] Porotan, the air looked yellowish with very
[00:10:44] limited visibility, even below 100
[00:10:46] meters. This condition makes road users have
[00:10:50] to be more careful. In the afternoon until evening,
[00:10:54] drivers must... turn on vehicle lights to
[00:10:57] help visibility and avoid accidents.
[00:11:00] One of the tank truck drivers named Muhammad
[00:11:03] Sema admitted that he was worried about the hazy
[00:11:07] conditions that disrupt health and limit visibility while driving.
[00:11:11] According to him, thick haze occurs at several points from
[00:11:14] Tumbang Lusa village, Pulangpisau district, to
[00:11:18] Cilik Riwut road at km 48,
[00:11:20] Palangkaraya.
[00:11:24] It's visible
[00:11:28] too, if the visibility is
[00:11:30] limited.
[00:11:32] But still driving slowly, right, Mas Muhammad? Which area is not bad, Mas Muhammad? Which one is not
[00:11:36] bad? This one is really bad. This one is bad. Yes, the area
[00:11:40] over there is
[00:11:43] 45. Thick yellowish haze due to forest
[00:11:47] and land fires covers East Kotawaringin Regency, Central
[00:11:50] Kalimantan. This condition makes the air quality in Kotim fall into the
[00:11:53] dangerous category.
[00:12:02] Based on the air pollutant standard index data, air quality
[00:12:05] in Koti falls into the dangerous category, which is at
[00:12:08] 318 PM 21 at 8
[00:12:12] am.
[00:12:14] Residents are asked to be more careful when doing outdoor
[00:12:18] activities, considering that exposure to forest and land fire smoke can trigger
[00:12:22] eye irritation and respiratory problems. One
[00:12:25] resident said that thick haze greatly disrupts activities,
[00:12:28] especially for drivers who have to be extra careful
[00:12:32] because the smoke limits visibility.
[00:12:57] It's really bad every morning
[00:13:00] and it's also quite concerning for breathing, especially
[00:13:04] for children, and for drivers too, don't forget to wear
[00:13:07] masks for our collective safety because currently
[00:13:11] the smoke is quite thick, right?
[00:13:15] Every morning it's very thick for Sampit, East
[00:13:18] Kotawaringin.
[00:13:19] timur
[00:13:23] Not only that, thick haze. also impacts flight activities at
[00:13:27] Hasan Airport Haji Hasan Sampit, for two
[00:13:30] weeks the airport's operational ID has been totally paralyzed. The airport
[00:13:34] head Haris said the visibility at the airport was only 100 meters so it did not
[00:13:38] allow flights to operate.
[00:13:52] Forest and land fires that are still occurring in Central Kalimantan are having
[00:13:56] an impact on the deteriorating air quality in Palangkaraya City, Central Kalimantan.
[00:13:59] Based on the Palangkaraya City government's forest and land fire
[00:14:03] dashboard data. On Monday, October 12,
[00:14:06] 2026, the air quality in Palangkaraya was in the
[00:14:10] dangerous category, with
[00:14:11] 6,258
[00:14:14] hotspots detected in Central Kalimantan with 657 hotspots
[00:14:18] detected in the Palangkaraya City area. Palangkaraya
[00:14:21] City government data recorded 84. cases
[00:14:25] of acute respiratory tract infections or ISPA as of October
[00:14:29] 12, 2026. Amid
[00:14:31] these conditions, the public is advised to reduce outdoor activities,
[00:14:35] wear appropriate masks, and maintain
[00:14:38] health.
[00:14:48] And this time we are already connected viewers with our colleague Joey Jones
[00:14:51] who is in Palangkaraya. Joe, good afternoon, how is
[00:14:55] the haze in Palangkaraya for today, Joy?
[00:14:58] Was the smoke thick
[00:15:00] from the morning?
[00:15:04] Yes, Anggi and viewers, indeed since
[00:15:07] this afternoon, the air status in Palangkaraya
[00:15:11] city is still dangerous
[00:15:14] and as the afternoon progresses, it gets
[00:15:17] worse. Indeed, since the morning it has been in a dangerous status, but
[00:15:21] as the afternoon progresses, the smoke gets thicker.
[00:15:25] in Palangkaraya city, viewers, as an indicator
[00:15:28] of course, from the data we received from the
[00:15:32] BMKG website that the air
[00:15:35] indicator at 300 is
[00:15:39] a dangerous number, but due to how bad
[00:15:43] the air conditions in Palangkaraya city are,
[00:15:47] the air pollution index shows a number of
[00:15:50] 1,300
[00:15:53] 09 viewers, this is at
[00:15:56] the number 300 only, Anggi and viewers, that is the last limit
[00:16:00] or after more than 300 is a dangerous number,
[00:16:03] and today, right now, as I am reporting, this has already...
[00:16:07] more than four times
[00:16:10] compared to the
[00:16:13] minimum number
[00:16:16] of good air to be inhaled
[00:16:18] by humans and not
[00:16:21] only from indicators, Anggi and viewers, I will invite you to
[00:16:25] show directly these numbers are indeed true
[00:16:28] because if you look, Anggi and
[00:16:31] viewers, you can see on your screen
[00:16:34] that as far as the eye can
[00:16:37] see, it's only smoke
[00:16:41] and the whole city of Palangkaraya
[00:16:44] is yellowish due to the sun that cannot penetrate
[00:16:48] the smoke that is there. I have been almost 4
[00:16:52] days, Anggi and viewers, in Palangkaraya city and not a single day
[00:16:55] have I felt direct sunlight on my
[00:16:59] skin because this is the condition from morning
[00:17:03] until night and it keeps repeating
[00:17:06] until now. I am reporting and
[00:17:09] conditions like this, Anggi and viewers,
[00:17:12] have been going on for more than
[00:17:16] 3 months for the people
[00:17:18] of Palangkaraya to deal with
[00:17:21] smoky conditions living in a city surrounded by
[00:17:25] smoke like this, but you can see, Anggi and viewers,
[00:17:29] if you also look at your screen and behind me right now,
[00:17:32] people seem to be carrying out
[00:17:35] normal activities
[00:17:38] them are not wearing masks. When I
[00:17:42] asked the community why they were doing
[00:17:45] normal activities as usual, they said that conditions like this
[00:17:49] did not happen in a matter
[00:17:53] of days but already for months and already more than 3
[00:17:57] months, so they have no other
[00:18:00] choice but to
[00:18:02] adapt to the poor
[00:18:05] air conditions.
[00:18:08] Nevertheless, Anggi and viewers, health
[00:18:11] indicators cannot be lied about because already more than
[00:18:15] 11,000
[00:18:18] reported infected with respiratory
[00:18:21] tracts, even though they have tried to
[00:18:24] carry out normal activities, but the very
[00:18:28] poor air still has
[00:18:32] an impact, I mean, on the health of the community
[00:18:36] in Palangkaraya city. We know together that this is
[00:18:39] the effect or consequence of very widespread forest
[00:18:43] fires occurring. In Palangkaraya city
[00:18:46] alone, viewers, there are more than
[00:18:49] 14,000 hectares of land
[00:18:52] that have burned and these
[00:18:56] hotspots continue
[00:18:58] to produce
[00:19:00] smoke that results in the haze
[00:19:04] that gathers in the city.
[00:19:37] widespread, so what they did when I asked
[00:19:41] was to make the maximum possible effort to
[00:19:45] extinguish the fire
[00:19:48] so that the land does not approach
[00:19:51] central areas such as residential areas or
[00:19:55] government offices, while
[00:19:58] for other large areas,
[00:20:02] it is indeed very difficult to cover
[00:20:05] due to the vastness of the area, plus the soil structure is
[00:20:09] peat soil that burns not only on the
[00:20:12] surface but at
[00:20:15] a depth of up to 3
[00:20:18] meters, making it very difficult
[00:20:22] to extinguish
[00:20:25] with the existing efforts. When I
[00:20:29] asked, they really hoped for rain, the people in Palangkaraya
[00:20:32] city, because rain is the most
[00:20:35] effective way to minimize
[00:20:39] or eliminate forest
[00:20:42] fires, so the effect is that Palangkaraya
[00:20:44] city can be free from
[00:20:48] smoke.
[00:20:51] Reporting from Palangkaraya, thank you,
[00:20:55] viewers, the government is exploring the use of fire extinguishing liquid from
[00:20:58] Brazil, called Realiza Anti
[00:21:02] Shamas, to help overcome forest and land fires in
[00:21:05] Indonesia. Coordinating Minister for Political, Legal, and Security Affairs, Dudung Abdurrahman, said this liquid
[00:21:09] is expected to help extinguish fires in burned areas. Met at the Presidential
[00:21:12] Palace complex in Jakarta. Dudung explained
[00:21:15] that Realiza Anti Shamas liquid is assistance from
[00:21:19] Brazil. This liquid will settle after being sprayed onto
[00:21:23] burned land, so it is hoped that it can help stop the spread
[00:21:26] of fire. Officers will spray this extinguishing liquid from
[00:21:29] the air using helicopters and also carry out manual extinguishing involving
[00:21:33] personnel on the ground. Dudung emphasized that the government continues
[00:21:37] to optimize efforts to handle forest and land fires in a number of regions in Indonesia
[00:21:40] so that the fires can be
[00:21:42] immediately controlled.
[00:21:47] Yes, I am indeed. as
[00:21:50] the chairman of the steering committee, I should have gone to
[00:21:53] ee Sumatra Selatan
[00:21:56] recently. coincidentally there is
[00:22:00] assistance from Brazil, so
[00:22:02] it's one ee liquid, so if
[00:22:06] it is ee sprayed, it will
[00:22:09] settle and then ee can extinguish it. We have
[00:22:12] tested this in South Sumatra, in
[00:22:15] Kalimantan, hopefully this will continue.
[00:22:19] and ee it can be extinguished soon. What is the liquid, sir? And then it will be
[00:22:22] in the air. In the
[00:22:25] air. So later through the helicopter, including manual also
[00:22:29] through ee e members later who will
[00:22:32] later. The haze from forest and land fires in Indonesia is now
[00:22:36] covering Singapore and Malaysia. The smoke carried by the wind from Sumatra
[00:22:40] and Kalimantan has worsened the air quality in both countries, entering
[00:22:44] the very unhealthy
[00:22:44] category.

[00:26:04] continue to spread, with a total burned area of more than 8,000
[00:26:07] hectares. Several forest areas are affected, while haze still
[00:26:11] blankets the area. Fire consumed several forest
[00:26:14] areas, starting from Berbak 9 National Park in East
[00:26:18] Tanjung Jabung Regency, the Grand Forest area in
[00:26:21] Petenghari Regency to the Forest in Sungai Gelam Sub-district
[00:26:24] of Muaro Jambi Regency. To
[00:26:27] reach the fire points, the Jambi Forest and Land Fire Task Force deployed
[00:26:30] personnel through air and land extinguishing. There were
[00:26:34] four helicopters conducting water bombing deployed to help
[00:26:38] extinguish the fire from the air.
[00:26:41] became larger due to strong winds,
[00:26:43] the fire in 04
[00:26:46] was brought under control.
[00:26:50] ee it was burning in the national park area, in
[00:26:53] the border area between national park
[00:26:56] 9 and national park Berbak, then in
[00:27:00] Rantau Raso, then there's still some down
[00:27:03] here in the Tahura area,
[00:27:06] ee Kayu Hitam war, that's also still there, and in Sungai Gelam
[00:27:10] too, yesterday afternoon, e if the
[00:27:12] total for all of Jambi
[00:27:16] until ee today from January
[00:27:19] it's 8,284
[00:27:23] hectares. The haze from forest and land fires in
[00:27:27] Indonesia is now covering Singapore and Malaysia. The smoke carried
[00:27:30] by the wind from Sumatra and Kalimantan has worsened the air quality in several
[00:27:34] areas of both countries, even reaching the very unhealthy
[00:27:38] category.
[00:27:43] Singapore's usually clear skies are now covered in thick
[00:27:46] haze, several city icons including the Marina
[00:27:49] Bay Sands hotel are barely visible behind a blanket
[00:27:53] of smoke. Not only does it obscure the view, this haze also
[00:27:56] degrades Singapore's air quality to unhealthy and
[00:28:00] even very unhealthy categories, anticipating. worse impacts,
[00:28:03] the Singapore government is preparing several protective measures for its citizens,
[00:28:07] ranging from updating air quality information to providing
[00:28:10] masks and medical
[00:28:12] assistance.
[00:28:18] Let's move to Malaysia. In several areas, the air pollution index
[00:28:22] is recorded above 100, which indicates that the air quality has
[00:28:26] entered the unhealthy category. The thick smoke
[00:28:29] even obscures the view of several national icons including
[00:28:32] the Petronas Twin Towers and Merdeka 118. The
[00:28:36] impact is not only visible in the sky and on the streets,
[00:28:40] teaching and learning activities are also disrupted, so several
[00:28:43] schools have been forced to close.
[00:28:55] Forest and land fires in Palangkaraya, Central Kalimantan are still
[00:28:58] ongoing, and the haze has widespread impacts on health
[00:29:01] activities. daily life and also the community's economy.
[00:29:05] To discuss this, we are connected with Indah Restuati, who is one
[00:29:09] of the residents in Palangkaraya, Central Kalimantan. Ms. Indah, good
[00:29:11] afternoon.
[00:29:16] Well, good afternoon, Mr. Anggi. Yes, ma'am, thank you
[00:29:20] for joining us. We know that the situation of forest and land fires and haze
[00:29:23] there has been going on for quite a while, it was mentioned earlier
[00:29:27] that it's been 3 months, right? If you could tell us, Ms. Indah, how have
[00:29:30] you and your family been living day to day amid
[00:29:34] these conditions?
[00:29:37] Yes, uh, first I will explain first, uh, this afternoon
[00:29:41] I am in the large roundabout
[00:29:43] area or what we usually know as the Talawang monument.
[00:29:47] Okay, ladies and gentlemen, friends, you can see
[00:29:51] how the situation and conditions are right
[00:29:53] now.
[00:29:56] Even the Talawang monument behind me is almost invisible
[00:29:59] because it is covered by how thick
[00:30:03] the haze is in Palangkaraya city. Speaking of the activities we do
[00:30:06] as a community here, this is the reality we have to face every
[00:30:10] day, which we have to live with. Every day we
[00:30:13] are exposed to dangerous pollutants, every day we breathe in
[00:30:17] smoke that is so thick that some of us
[00:30:21] have no choice but to ee and considering that not everyone
[00:30:24] has the same privilege, there are some who still have
[00:30:28] to do activities outside the house to be able to survive and keep the wheels of
[00:30:32] life turning amidst the haze that is currently hitting us.
[00:30:36] Of course, ee for me, this is
[00:30:39] a compulsion where, whether they want to or not, people
[00:30:43] still have to carry out activities or
[00:30:45] activities
[00:30:48] normally in the midst of a situation and conditions that are currently
[00:30:52] not normal at all. Okay, Ms. Indah, if we look at the conditions around
[00:30:55] where Ms. Indah lives, right, how far has this fire spread?
