Members of a Sinar Mas Forestry firefighting team conduct a practice drill on a timber estate area in Minas, Siak, Riau, on Thursday (26/1/2017). According to the Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics (BMKG), the dry season this year will be drier than normal and this could cause more fires. President Joko Widodo has asked all parties to be more serious in the fight against forest and land fires.
