00:00:00Siregar donated the first bronze medal
00:00:02in
00:00:07the struggle of Indonesian techri athletes.
00:00:09Sumaya had to stop in the 2026 Asian Games final.
00:00:12Sumaya lost to
00:00:15Myanmar's Tekball athlete Kin Hinwai.
00:00:19The match score was won by Sumaya in the first set with a score of
00:00:2212-10, but in the second set Sumaya lost with a score of
00:00:268-12 and in the third set she lost again with
00:00:30a score of 9-12. This Indonesian Tekball athlete from
00:00:34Riau made history as the first athlete to reach
00:00:37the final of the 2026 Asian Games.
00:00:40Takball is a sport that was competed for the first time
00:00:46anything on at the Asian Games, namely at the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya,
00:00:49Japan. Previously, Sumaya defeated Indian techball athlete
00:00:52Kwimsi Waquin in
00:00:55the semifinals.
00:01:06and this is indeed one of the risks Meanwhile, Wushu became the sport
00:01:08that contributed Indonesia's first medal at the 2026 Asian Games.
00:01:12Seraf Narosiregar, Indonesian Wushu athlete,
00:01:16opened the red and white medal
00:01:19Okay, so what are the complaints? What's the most noticeable tap after successfully winning a bronze medal in the men's Changquan event.
00:01:22Naro achieved a total of
00:01:259,720
00:01:29concentration of dust and smoke particles in points. This achievement was obtained in the middle of
00:01:39continuously inhale this, because some are
00:01:50the particles produced
00:03:57If it's from here, no. Okay.
00:04:12Ah.
00:04:17Bar. Hair. Friends, let's all brief
00:04:21for 15 minutes to shoot
00:04:24up, 15 b for the peat
00:04:27nozzle.
00:04:38Thank you. Let's
00:04:39fight.
00:04:43Start.
00:04:48deaths as of Saturday. The outbreak, which
00:04:50Okay.
00:04:53Okay.
00:05:01Let's start the engine. Let's start the engine. We want to
00:05:04shoot
00:05:05plants.
00:05:18Brother Asrun, can you explain what this tool is? This is a planting nozzle,
00:05:21meaning we are trying to retrieve
00:05:25a fire bar at a depth of 1 meter because
00:05:27the fire is not visible, the smoke is not visible, but the bar is inside,
00:05:31so this nozzle is what we use
00:05:34so that it can reach what we cannot reach.
00:05:38Is it proven to be effective, brother? Yes, this is very effective, it's just quite
00:05:41exhausting.
00:05:44Peatlands are indeed very prone to burning. With a very high
00:05:47carbon content, peat becomes a natural
00:05:50fuel. Especially with its porous texture resembling a giant
00:05:54sponge, once ignited, it is capable of burning
00:05:58it. Unfortunately, the characteristics of peatlands
00:06:02in the Kuburaya area have extreme depths of up to
00:06:06tens of meters. As a result, embers are prone
00:06:09to being stored underground.
00:06:13So, we are not far from the hotspot location,
00:06:18faced by our volunteer friends because the fire is so
00:06:22close to the dry vegetation around us that
00:06:25it can catch fire at any time, right? Yes,
00:06:27that's right.
00:06:32More than 2 months of fighting forest and land fires is certainly
00:06:36not a short time. Threats to health and safety are certainly
00:06:40lurking. Firefighters.
00:07:05When there was still a lot of smoke and fire, it meant that
00:07:08they were constantly exposed to smoke like this, right, friends in the field?
00:07:12Yes, as long as there is still smoke, the volunteers,
00:07:15our colleagues, are indeed exposed to
00:07:18the smoke from the embers. What does it feel like,
00:07:22mas? Sometimes it feels
00:07:24tight, breathing is not smooth. Usually, not smooth means
00:07:28it feels heavy when you breathe in. Yes,
00:07:31exactly. True.
00:07:34Have you ever felt short of breath too, bro?
00:07:38Yes, but we anticipate it immediately because we have
00:07:42a backup from our volunteer friends. The point is,
00:07:46we do as much as we can. If
00:07:49we don't feel well, it's better to
00:07:53withdraw to ensure safety. What's the worst
00:07:56of it like, mas? When it's
00:07:59bad, it's very difficult to breathe.
00:08:03It's like our lungs feel like there's
00:08:07smoke obstructing them. When there are still a lot of hotspots,
00:08:10yes, what was it like at the beginning,
00:08:14mas? If it's a hotspot, actually,
00:08:17it can be seen that the problem is more about the smoke,
00:08:21because if there is smoke, then the dust from the burning
00:08:25is more dangerous,
00:08:26right?
00:08:33It feels like this, right? The fire never
00:08:36really went out. When
00:08:39we were just about to roll up the hose,
00:08:43another hotspot appeared in another part
00:08:46that was further into this peatland
00:08:49field.
00:09:13We even have to open a path first to reach
00:09:17the hotspot like
00:09:18this.
00:09:26If this gets hit, everything will burn
00:09:28up to the top, right? Because the
00:09:32fire point was high just now, right?
00:09:35I mean, from here, you can see
00:09:39if there's fire here. Look, it's still
00:09:42in this position. Okay, the bread was gone
00:09:46just now, suddenly it got hit by a spark, and then it
00:09:49spread. These are what people here call
00:09:53embers, which are small in size but still
00:09:56contain embers, right? They contain embers, and when they
00:09:59move to another point, they can cause
00:10:02new hotspots.
00:10:05We can see there's another hotspot over
00:10:07there.
00:10:13Another hotspot appeared
00:10:15over there.
00:10:20How did you detect it, sir? How did you know it was there, sir? Because
00:10:23there was smoke. You could see
00:10:26the light. To last for half
00:10:29an hour, 15 minutes, you looked out of breath. 15
00:10:33minutes of wearing a mask continuously makes you out of breath because of what? Breathing
00:10:36your own oxygen or what, sir? Because of the smoke and walking,
00:10:39it looks
00:10:41like
00:10:45forest and land fires are still occurring. The
00:10:49emergency response status for the haze has been extended until September
00:10:5220. The haze surrounds all
00:10:55directions, disrupting residents' activities.
00:10:58tergangu,
00:11:01Residents reduce outdoor activities and they
00:11:04tend to
00:11:07maintain health by staying indoors.
00:11:09rumah,
00:12:58There is still smoke everywhere,
00:13:02because again, this is peatland, therefore
00:13:05the fire can flare up
00:13:08again at any time.
00:13:11The West Kalimantan Provincial Government is still extending the emergency response status
00:13:15for forest and land fires. This decision was made because six
00:13:19regency areas are still the epicenter of the worst
00:13:23fires.
00:13:27Kuburaya Regency is the center of the most hotspots
00:13:30in West Kalimantan, more than 8
00:13:34burned due to forest and land fires. More than
00:13:386000 people are affected, and now a health crisis
00:13:41and lack of clean water are looming.
00:13:44Limbung Village is one of the largest and most critical
00:13:48epicenters. Local residents face multiple
00:13:51and extreme threats, from health to safety.
00:13:57This is the former burnt land in Limbung Village, Sungai Raya District. The condition
00:14:01is more or less like this. There are still charred remains, and these
00:14:05are actually plants that were already ready to be harvested by the residents
00:14:09living here, meaning that this not only burned the land but also
00:14:12caused residents to lose their livelihoods. There is one resident
00:14:15who, to this day, for more than several weeks, has not dared to leave her house
00:14:19because she still has a baby. What is her story? We will try
00:14:23to confirm directly.
00:14:33Well, I have arrived at her house. So, to give
00:14:37you an idea of the distance between where I am currently
00:14:40and the burned land, it's only
00:14:44a few tens of meters, meaning it's very close. In fact, if we are on the terrace
00:14:48of this house, we can see the embers still
00:14:51burning when the fire occurred.
00:15:01Amidst the daily haze, the lives of families
00:15:04with babies are certainly at greater risk.
00:15:08Extreme and prolonged smoke exposure can trigger
00:15:11pneumonia and severe ARI. Exposure
00:15:14to heavy carbon monoxide can also lead to hypoxia and
00:15:18sudden infant death syndrome.
00:15:20mendadak.
00:15:23This fire has been burning for almost a month, it seems.
00:15:27Almost a month, yes. She stays indoors more often.
00:15:30Yes, she stays indoors all the time. She doesn't dare to go out,
00:15:33even though it's already extinguished like this. Yes, why, ma'am?
00:16:07Hmm, is it asthma or what?
00:16:11Just shortness of breath, just coughing
00:16:13like that.
00:16:17Unfortunately, not only are they surrounded by smoke, but residents also lost their
00:16:21livelihoods. Hayati's pineapple plantation
00:16:24was completely destroyed by
00:16:26the forest and land fires. Yes.
00:16:29It's disturbing. We here
00:16:32rely on fern,
00:16:34there's no land left. Fire.
00:16:38Pineapples. Beautiful pineapples.
00:16:40Fire.
00:16:43There hasn't been anything like this before, right? Not yet, even though it was already
00:16:46ready to be harvested. Yes, it was already
00:16:49ready to be harvested. Now, now, mas,
00:16:53it's already very expensive. Everything burned down.
00:16:56How do you feel, ma'am, seeing that right in front of
00:17:00you? Sad. That's our only
00:17:03livelihood. That's what we wait for
00:17:07every month. Pineapple. Official data from the
00:17:11Ministry of Health recorded that until mid-September,
00:17:15there were at least 12,500
00:17:18people directly affected by the forest and land fire smoke.
00:17:35Yes, currently I am.
00:17:37I'm on the Kapuas River. We are cruising along this road.
00:17:41Residents are reducing outdoor activities, and they
00:17:44tend to maintain
00:17:48their health by staying indoors, and that's also what parents advise
00:17:51their children so that they are not exposed
00:17:54to forest and land fire smoke
00:17:57too often. They are instructed to stay indoors
00:18:00and reduce outdoor activities.
00:18:04The impact of acute and prolonged forest and land fires in West Kalimantan.
00:18:12During the peak of the haze season, there was an explosion of new
00:18:15ARI cases, totaling 62,278
00:18:18cases, spread across 14 regencies and
00:18:22cities. Pontianak City is the area with the highest
00:18:26number of cases, reaching more than 13,000
00:18:30cases in 9 weeks.
00:18:33The Pontianak City Health Office stated that the highest
00:18:36daily case number even reached 400
00:18:40cases. Sometimes it can be up to 2 meters below, it's still peat.
00:18:44So, we at the Pontianak City Health Office
00:18:47started observing around the 27th
00:18:50week of this year, around July.
00:18:52Up until now, the 35th week, we have observed
00:18:55a significant increase in
00:18:59ARI cases reported through
00:19:02health centers in Pontianak City.
00:19:05Now, we have daily data for ARI cases
00:19:08that come to us, starting from
00:19:12around 275 cases
00:19:15per day across Pontianak City. Sometimes it has even reached
00:19:19400 cases.
00:19:22We urge the public
00:19:25to avoid outdoor activities.
00:19:28If you are forced to carry out outdoor activities,
00:19:32please use a mask.
00:19:34That's it. Since it hit
00:19:38in late June, it has triggered new ARI cases up to
00:19:4113,842
00:19:43cases. It started to increase in
00:19:47the 29th week. Then in the 30th week
00:19:50it decreased, then rose again in the 32nd
00:19:53week. And now
00:19:55it's the same.
00:22:08For the past 2 months, West Kalimantan has been covered in
00:22:11haze. The blue sky is now
00:22:14covered in thick fog. The high
00:22:19the air has become a toxic compound that threatens the health
00:22:23of its residents. Since August, the air quality
00:22:26in Pontianak City has been at a dangerous level.
00:22:30The condition continues to worsen, reaching an extreme
00:22:33level. Early this week, the number even reached
00:22:371,368,
00:22:40far exceeding the hazardous air quality threshold.
00:22:42Every day, residents have to breathe
00:22:46smoky air, exposed to dangerous toxins,
00:22:50resulting in more than 165,000 residents
00:22:53suffering from acute respiratory tract infections or
00:22:56ARI.
00:23:02Daily ARI cases in Pontianak have now reached
00:23:05300 cases. ARI sufferers come and go,
00:23:08filling existing health facilities.
00:23:11Children under five and the elderly are the vulnerable
00:23:15age groups. For the elderly group, the number of cases
00:23:18reached approximately 4,700 people, or
00:23:2110.6% of the total
00:23:24sufferers. This group is very vulnerable, as
00:23:28it can trigger or worsen existing
00:23:30diseases. Emergency oxygen facilities are a crucial
00:23:34factor determining the survival of some
00:23:37patients exposed to
00:23:38forest and land fire smoke.
00:23:45What will be the impact, sir, after using
00:23:49oxygen? The shortness of breath will be lighter. Okay, to
00:23:52relieve the shortness of breath. If it's because of smoke now,
00:23:56it's also recommended to drink warm water. If the shortness of breath is unbearable,
00:23:59we recommend going to the hospital or to
00:24:03posts that have oxygen. These last two weeks
00:24:06have been the worst. These last two weeks have seen more
00:24:09shortness of breath, and ARI as well,
00:24:13and coughing. It's been the last week. The last week. What does it
00:24:16feel like? Coughing here.
00:24:20It hurts. Ah, if
00:24:23you cough, sometimes it takes a long time
00:24:26before you can breathe normally.
00:24:30So, it's been 2 weeks, but it's not cured yet, right? Yes,
00:24:33not yet. So we come back here again.
00:24:36The doctor gave me medicine, antibiotics and
00:24:39anti-inflammatory medicine. Is this
00:24:43a cold?
00:24:57Almost all health facilities in Pontianak are now
00:25:00packed with ARI patients. Katulis Tiwa Health Center,
00:25:04located in a densely populated area, is also flooded
00:25:08with patients. Since January until September,
00:25:11this Health Center has handled 3,845 ARI
00:25:14cases. The trend of cases has rapidly
00:25:17increased in the last 3 months. From
00:25:21the data we collected here, the number of ARI patients is among the highest,
00:25:24ma'am. Yes, that's right. So, in the last 3
00:25:27months, if we compare it from July,
00:25:31August, and September, the
00:25:34number of ARI patients has indeed increased.
00:25:37If we look at July and August, it was only
00:25:40around 14%, but from August to September,
00:25:44it can reach up to 50% if we compare the data from the 1st
00:25:48to the 10th with
00:25:50the previous month. It started to increase in the 29th
00:25:53week. Yes, week 29, we see it
00:25:57here. Then in the 30th week it went down, then
00:26:01rose again in the 32nd week. And now
00:26:04it's the same. This is for the year
00:26:062026. Meaning that since the haze was severe,
00:26:10right? Yes, so it's about 15
00:26:13ARI patients
00:26:15per day.
00:26:18Haze clearly targets everyone, but the productive
00:26:22age group, especially those who are active outdoors,
00:26:25are an easy target. That is why the majority of ARI
00:26:29sufferers are from the adult age group.
00:26:37Devi is one of them.
00:26:40Even though the haze is widespread, she still has to
00:26:43work. The mask she wears every day when outside
00:26:47is not effective in warding off the
00:26:50smoke. So, she decided
00:26:54to get checked today, right? Yes, she had never been checked
00:26:58before, only today, because she didn't have time, she kept working,
00:27:01right? Where does she work every day? Or yes, every day she works
00:27:05in Jungkat. Is it outdoor or in a factory or
00:27:09in an office? Outdoor. Where? Outside, working
00:27:12outdoors and it's a meatball job, in a meatball stall. So, she's exposed
00:27:16to smoke every day, right? Yes.
00:27:21thing today? Is it coughing?
00:27:25Coughing, hmm, coughing until vomiting, lots of phlegm,
00:27:29and then her throat is itchy.
00:27:35What are the long-term effects,
00:27:38doctor, for patients who
00:27:42disciplined and some are not, right? What are the long-term
00:27:45effects? Yes, so what I know and what I've learned
00:27:49is that
00:27:52by these forest fires
00:27:56are very small particles,
00:27:59PM2.5, which can unknowingly enter
00:28:02the smallest lung tissue, called alveoli.
00:28:06When it reaches the alveoli, it is likely
00:28:09to damage the lung
00:28:12tissue.
00:28:15Forest and land fires are not just fire, but there are
00:28:19triggers, there are perpetrators, and hundreds of thousands
00:28:22of hectares of land are burned. Beyond that,
00:28:25there are also lives and safety at stake.
00:28:27Investigate thoroughly the causes and
00:28:31perpetrators to prevent the cases from
00:28:34recurring.

00:30:30Ebola cases in Congo has exceeded
00:30:337,500 cases. Health authorities have now begun vaccine
00:30:37trials to assess its protection against the Bundi
00:30:40Bukyo variant that triggered the current outbreak. Data from the
00:30:43Congolese government recorded 7,541 confirmed
00:30:46Ebola cases with 3,639
00:30:51was declared in May, is the largest and deadliest in
