Sediakan Payung Sebelum Heatwave

We're all feeling the heat these days, and it's only expected to get warmer in the next few months. Heatstroke cases have been consistently reported, and outdoor activities in schools have been postponed by the Ministry of Education. So, we first speak to an urban planning expert on how this has affected people living in cities, and what we can do about it. Then, we explore how this heat wave has hit the agricultural sector.
