It’s Time We Take Indoor Air Quality More Seriously

As Malaysians, we’re often used to complaining about the terrible outdoor air quality, especially during the haze season. But COVID-19 has taught us that it’s just as important to pay attention - and do something - about the air quality inside our homes and buildings. We speak to Dr Jenny Su Huey-Jen, Distinguished Professor of Environmental Health at the National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan, on her work studying indoor air quality and how we can improve things here.
