Singapore is the world's biggest importer of sand because she had already ran out of domestic supply due to its small size but she is not the world's largest user of sand in reclaiming lands. Singapore is not even in the top 5. Other countries are reclaiming lands using their own sand but the environmental impact is the same whether you import it or not. Look, China had already reclaimed around 13,000 square kilometers while Singapore had reclaimed much less than 200 square kilometers! Netherlands, South Korea, Japan had already reclaimed a lot too. Bahrain is also a small country like Singapore (just bigger by few square kilometers) and had already reclaimed much more than Singapore and people are not making so much noises in the same level they do to Singapore. Maybe, Singapore is very progressive and working good in many categories that's why she gets more notices from the international media as compared to other countries.

Correct. And there were also soils from Singapore that were used, like those excavation materials taken out of the construction sites and those removed by the Tunnel Boring Machines. Those sands purchased by Singapore from the Philippines were those sand spewed out by the Mt. Pinatubo volcanic eruptions. There were no environmental damages that were done here. In fact, Singapore helped us removed those lahar sands that had clogged our rivers and other tributaries because for so many years, the lahar sands has been cascading down the rivers everytime there is a strong rain (typhoons).

Great video, Mr Versed. Reclamation is environmentally destructive, but Singapore's development agencies have recognised this and are attempting to reduce its environmental impact through environmental studies and habitat relocation where possible. Sovereign rights have become a point of contention with Malaysia, with cases brought to the international court alleging that Singapore's land reclamation works disrupted the livelihoods of Malaysian fishermen across the Johor strait. I think a greater long-term challenge for Singapore , apart from the sovereign issues you mentioned, is that Singapore's reclamation works are getting close to the limits of the continental shelf she sits on, where sea levels are relatively lower. Reclaiming beyond the continental shelf, where waters are much deeper, is extremely challenging and practically infeasible.

Lies again? Nashville Dallas Sexist Racist

Ok, all jokes aside from my previous comment, I do not like the idea of empoldering. A few problems. Firstly, its a flood in the making. If it rains too hard in singapore, and our canals are full, all the water will flow into this area. Secondly, a breach in the sea wall will be incredibly devastating. A way to mitigate this would be multiple walls within the empoldered land, kind of like how a ship has bulkheads with water tight doors. Thirdly, sea water will be able to get into the land, and since the land is below the sea level, water that gets collected here will likely be salty. This could make the water relatively undrinkable and require more advanced techniques to purify. We rely on our reservoirs as one way to get clean water, so land that cannot be used in this way is a bit of a negative. However, as a singaporean, I can confirm that we are in quite desperate need for land. So I could get behind the idea of empolderment (or whatever its called). But I think we are gonna need to be real careful in the implementation. We cant just build a wall and expect that to solve all problems and not create new ones (looking at the trump wall)

@@tankman20064 not really. maybe that according Singaporean history text book, but the fact is Malays were the first settlers in the island long before the British came. It was part of Johor-Riau Empire before the British came and brought all those Chinese and Indian immigrants, same like in Malaya and Borneo.

Had a relative who bought a house on Beach Road, and it was named so because it was beside the beach and he wanted a seaside house. A few years later, he got mad, he commented "where is the beach?"

Just curious, why not buy large chunk of land from Malaysia or Indonesia? Building/reclaiming new land is energy intensive. The only Issue I see is transport for people staying away from mainland.

No matter reclaimation of land increase to the max , spore is still short of natural resources , is a very dry land.

There is a nearby Indonesian island actually as big as Singapore, maybe best for them to buy this island of Indonesia, just a thought.

Raffles didn't do much... it was Willain Farquar who made some changes. But Lee Kuan Yew is the man who spaed modern Singapore

If I am Singapore I make the island square to maximise land space. Buy old Luxury Cruiser, refurbished and house their people in it. Park the luxury somewhere near the island. Further Singapore sinking by the day due to the tremendous sky scraper the poor island to bare the weight. This luxury boat will be flood proof.

There is a limit on how far singapore could reclaimed their land. And if singapore trying to grab indonesian water by using their shoreline as the reason, well, good luck because indonesia won't just sit there and watch

Not the right kind of sand.

Instead of reclamation with its hazards to the environment why not acquire land from another country by cash purchase? That way they will have a distant territory for trade/exports and they could assist another nation that may be in dire need of the influx of cash. Just a thought.

That is desert sand. Not all sand are suitable for land reclamation.

so what if 24 sand islands around Indonesia vanished? These are just islands with no inhabitants. At least they could be converted into income for the nation.
