Thai government promises to get rid of smog in Chiang Mai and the north

We only have a few precious months of relatively clean air (as long as you're not near a main road). Can we stop talking about Chiang Mai's horrific air for just a few months and restart the conversation in October, when the air goes bad again?

Here’s an imagining about the smog.

Create along the neighbours across the borders a combined national parks division.

Get some old jets, covert to water bombers.

Build a network of fire watch towers across the northwest (similar to those used in the US), man them with national parks officers.

 

Report any fires immediately they are noticed. If a permit is not recorded as given waterbomb the fires there and then.

Ban seasonal burning outright and support farmers field clearing with a collective of excavators and hand tilling machinery to manage fields, also managed, maintained, and operated by national parks employees.

Measuring a problem is not the same as fixing it.

Give the army something to do. Start shooting arsonists caught in the act, they are killing their fellow Thais. Would not take long for the word to get around.
