Singapore'€™s former prime minister Goh Chok Tong praised the Indonesian government for its ability to tackle the haze crisis caused by land and forest fires in Riau.

In a statement posted on his Facebook account, on Sunday morning, Goh expressed his gratitude to President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono. He said the President had shown strong leadership in dealing with the transnational problem.

'€œAs the saying goes, when there is a will, there is a way. Thank you, President SBY, for showing this graciousness and dignified statesmanship,'€ Goh wrote, as quoted by Kompas.com.

Your comments:

Just wonder if Mr. Goh Chock Tong knows what he is saying. Singapore citizens were overcome by smoke and Mr. Goh gives praise?

He gave praise to President SBY for his efforts to tackle the haze, not for creating the haze.

Talk smart please, you are showing your stupidity.

What a contrast! SBY is considered a weak leader by the former vice president in his handling of the haze in our neighboring countries.
