Abstract

The mass poisoning of residents due to the inhalation of gas from PT Medco E&P Malacca's oil and gas well in the Block A area has sparked a debate in various circles in Aceh. Evacuations of residents from their villages have been carried out due to gas leaks and the presence of pungent odors. The public has accepted Medco E&P Malacca's statement taking responsibility for the gas leaks and the resulting public health problems. Residents have also recognized the environmental impact of these gas leaks on air quality, water sources, and agricultural land.
