According to research by the Center of Economic and Law Studies (Celios), there are around 17.4 million people who are potentially at risk of Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) due to forest and land fires (karhutla) in Indonesia in 2026.
Celios made this estimate based on the 2023 prevalence data of ARIs from the Ministry of Health and the Central Statistics Agency (BPS).
"There is a potential number of people affected by forest and land fires who suffer from symptoms and diagnoses of ARIs, reaching 17.4 million," said Celios in the report titled "Those Who Suffer from Breathlessness and Those Who Pay the Economic Costs of Forest Fires".
If viewed by region, West Nusa Tenggara has the most potential for ARIs, reaching 3.66 million people.
Here are the potential numbers of people diagnosed and showing symptoms of ARIs due to karhutla in 2026, according to Celios' calculations:
- West Nusa Tenggara: 3,661,232 people
- East Java: 2,679,791 people
- East Nusa Tenggara: 1,864,016 people
- Riau: 1,813,179 people
- West Kalimantan: 1,576,150 people
- South Kalimantan: 1,440,465 people
- Central Sulawesi: 1,291,212 people
- Central Papua: 1,046,573 people
- Central Kalimantan: 802,602 people
- Maluku: 475,990 people
- Riau Islands: 434,249 people
- South Papua: 277,208 people
It should be noted that the potential number of ARIs in East Java only includes the districts in the Bromo-Tengger-Semeru National Park area, namely Probolinggo, Pasuruan, Lumajang, and Malang.
