00:00Finally, I can see the blue sky!
00:07That's right, seeing blue skies is now news.
00:11After more than two months of trouble with the smoke burial
00:13The clouds have finally cleared over many parts of Malaysia in the past few days.
00:17Netizens shared videos and photos of the blue sky and white clouds on social media.
00:22After all, it's been a really long time since I've seen such a clear skyline.
00:26Of course, all of this is thanks to the northeast monsoon.
00:30The wind direction changed, preventing Indonesian smoke from drifting over.
00:33But how long can we endure this life without burial?
00:43Malaysian Meteorological Department Director General Muhammad Sisham said
00:45This northeast monsoon is expected to last until March next year.
00:49The wind is blowing from China and Vietnam toward the South China Sea.
00:52This directly blocked the path of Indonesian smoke from reaching my country.

01:00However, the northeast monsoon also brings new threats.
01:04The weather bureau recently issued an alert.
01:06Only during the period from November this year to January next year
01:08my country is expected to experience three to five waves of persistent heavy rainfall.
01:12Flash floods may occur in low-lying areas and river regions.
01:17Strong northeasterly winds may also cause large waves and sea level rise in the South China Sea.

01:44Meteorologists warn
01:45A strong El Niño phenomenon is expected to become more pronounced by the end of this year or early next year.
01:50This has led to low water levels in Sabah, northern Sarawak, and the northern part of the peninsula.

01:55Facing an extreme drought crisis
01:57Rainfall is likely to be 10% to 20% lower than in previous years.
02:01From the long-standing smog to the threat of floods
02:04Towards the challenges of future droughts
02:06The challenges brought about by climate change are coming one after another.
02:09Next, regardless of disaster prevention preparations in low-lying areas...
