*MAJULAH SINGAPURA* ❤❤❤ *HATERS HATE BECAUSE WE ARE WINNERS 🏆.*

It’s better to bite the bullet and move ahead with new strategies to protect the country than to just sit and watch and cry in years down the road.

Note to the Environmentalist , Sports and Recreations body and Retail Shops Associations and more. Survivorship takes precedence over anything in Singapore including sports and recreation and so forth. If Singapore sinks, there won't be any surfers, kitefoiling boarders around, let alone retail shops etcetera , 80% or more mainland Singapore will be underwater if no drastic action is taken to mitigate the sea level rise. We are as good as dead if this come true. Just remember, Singapore is the 20th smallest island country existing on earth, there are limited options Personally, I am not worried about it cause I won't be around to witness the sea level rise and many of you who are in your 60s will not live to see it. Its only our generation of youngsters that are of concerns just like generation before us worried will we survive after WWII..

The global mean sea level has risen significantly over the years due to climate change and Singapore isn’t the only country in the world to be affected by it. The Marina Barrage and the embankments along Singapore’s coastline are some of the measures taken to cope with the global phenomenon. The “Long Island” when constructed will also have costal protection features.

When SGP talks about reclamations, our neighbors politician are rubbing their hands and their eyes would be spinning like a jackpot machine.

Oh, boy, I do appreciate your sarcastic sense of humour, I really do! These shots at 11:13 and onward... What a... Ah, "sweet memories" - of me doing OW dives (part of scuba diving course i took there), and those lovely December mornings of '94 at Pulau Hantu... Where the visibility is... erm... wait, lemme consult "Training Records" section of my logbook... Yeah, found it! - the whole... TWO METRES. Yep, you read it right - not "twelve", and certainly not "twenty". Just TWO. But then I have to add it was on a "good day" - cuz on the other day it was 1.5 m. And as far as the "marine life" there goes - oh, plenty. On one dive you coud see as much as few dozens of... hydroids, aka stinging sea ferns. Huge beasts, each at least 10 cm long... OK, OK, "almost 10 cm", but still. And then some of "the other marine life there", and some people say this is where this islet took its name from - floating little ghosts, that looked suspiciously similar to plastic bags. Some even carried the NTUC logo on them... Still, scary like hell, ayam tellin' you... ;-)

Does not compute because the expected rise in sea water (> 5 meters) does not just flood to the eastern side of Singapore Island only. It’s simply a deceptive ploy to fool its neighboring countries (Malaysia / Indonesia) as they are very wary of Singapore’s sea landfill to extend its land mass.

Rise in sea water does not mean Singapore is sinking. Dumpass

The unhappy ones are those from PISA below average nations 😢

wat a genius singapore is ...instead of saying he wants 2 INCREASE THE LAND AREA he came up with the bright idea of fighting the sea level rise in 100 years...that's why singapore is so successful... blocking any future problems

Another possible solution....to this matter...dont forget to save the containers from the ports...it could come in handy...anytime...😊

I heard indonesia and malaysia no longer supply sands/earth to Singapore. Buy sand from other country, costly. So Singaporean prepare to pay & pay GST now is 9%

with the creations new islands, does it mean singapore has extended its boundry to indonesia? i hope singapore n indonesia will not start quarelling. and by the way where does the raw materials, that is sand come from?

Recent developments in Asia, such as China constructing a new port at the mouth of the Straits of Malacca and Thailand engaging in discussions with China to build a canal across Thailand, raise questions about the potential impact on Singapore.

Will there be a new beach like today where the public can enjoy the beach sand & water? If no, then it means it'll be privatised to benefit just a few residents. Then the project should not proceed until a public access to sand beach & sea water like today is incorporated, not deleted.

Any brilliant mega project to reduce the soaring temperature in SG? Every day feels like 40 degrees. Should rename this place as Sauna Singapore instead of Sunny Singapore

Hey WKM, why aren't some of my factual comments being displayed? Anti SG much?

The effort will be similar to polder in Holland: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polder The most cost effective way is to migrate to places with higher ground that could accommodate more population. The overall effects of rising sea level with climate change is unclear, there would be more surprises ahead and solutions need to be adaptable. There are places in the world still sparsely populated, e.g., Australia, America, etc that can be engineered to make the land habitable. Deserts may turn green again with climate change.

You know my only observation is: have you ever looked at a cockroach colony in a septic tank and see what congestion and constriction affects ???

Where to get sand for reclamation?

BS, another spin doctor.

This video is a propaganda from someone that is jealous of Singapore success Viva Singapore !!! Viva LKY!!!

Consider seawater energy⚡🙏🙏🙏🙏

We are already drowning by our own saliva.

Build more..😊

the rising sea levels would course the golf stream to stop resulting in a new ice age in the atlantic region with arctic and polar winds continuing despite the stopping of the golf stream causing a permanent winter across Europa and likely also other streams that push hotter waters north in asia heating the east asian coastal regions while people generally think of global warming now and global cooling then the change in the fareast would be one from temperate in east asia to a more siberian like climate for china and a more temperate climate for the tropical southeast-asia in the short run sea levels will rise however in the long run the rising sea levels stopping the golf stream and several others like it will cool the earth in the polar regions causing more water that comes down as rain or snowfall to be locked up in ice shelfs and snowcovered regions that do not melt in the summer lowering ocean levels exposing more land (a perfect opportunity to build up this newly reclaimed land with barriers at the coast to hold in the added sand and earth to keep it from going back under the sea onces the climate naturally reverses again as it has done many times the last ten millennia) a few things out of our control is also contributing to this for once the weakening of earths magnetic fields coronal solar activity changes changes to the solar as well as potential future solar flare and in fact we are behind schedule for a coronal shedding of the sun something that happens on a three million year schedule as well as a polar switch (north south the poles are drifting and it is possible this may instead lead to a polar switch through shifting north and south) a good portion of volcanoes are also expected to increase or restart surface activity (a geological origin for potential future atmospheric effect ) lidar research indicates that several jungles are actually and artificial manmade phenomeno not of natural origin (and the high strain such forestry has had and continues to have on the soil is a ticking time bomb for future desertification same goes for the current amerikan agricultural industry)

At the 9th minute it was mentioned a growing population? I wonder if that's a correct narrative.

I do have to ask these. Does the maritime boundary start from the new shoreline or the old? And where are the rocks/sand coming from? Cambodia?

What's with these ferris wheels?

LOOK IT UP. one degree C will not make the seawaters swell that much. Or if I am wrong, can yu please tell me what you base that statement , that 1 degree celcius ausd that degree f siking? Sinking is real but it is not necessarily caused by globa warming, I think.

Underway Long Island project has taken all interested parties like marine biodiversity community, water sport enthusiast, property owners and environmental activist etc.. concerns under preview before its blueprint is approved and construction work begin, despite the fact sea level rises waited for no one approval to advance in engulfing Singapore. 🤔

Majulah Singapura

Why someone so jealous about this tiny island ??

u mean water CAN just come in ONE DIRECTION?

When the time comes banking could be done on floats or barges...that would be great..that goes to the factories too....for singapore its nothing impossible...as long as the people pay and pay😂

Malaysia johor has a ready made oval island to protect its shores. Singapore😅

Malaysia dan singapura

Can see the walking sightseeing place(the sea) like have alot of people, unbelievable if imagine like 100 there, then it's a reason of science instead? If walk there "due to a script that existed", isn't it mainteinence of an injuring-movement like an agreed matter to be in that experience? Can't be only target that understand, if people were created to "not look there"?

there goes our beach .. Bye bye

The island is not sinking but sea level is rising due to climate changes.

My friends. This video channel lies. I am putting it on my Do Not Recommend list.

What I worried most is the underground shifted? If its shifted than are we affected? Are we in danger if we are no longer protected by our neighboring countries when there are earth quakes ?

the Loong Island

About 4 minutes of info the title promised, the rest is useless fluff

Singapore can afford to buy a larger island or a country. its a matter of $$$ only!

Singaporeans still don't get the message....the reason why hdb made so many high rise flats...and condos too....just in case...we are talking logics here...

learn from holland how to build dam.

AI speaker

cute country

overly dramatic much?

Hello how the import of sand invoke the wrath of neighbours. You talk as if Singapore get it free of charge. If neighbouring countries does not sell to us, we can always buy from other countries.

Too many high rise buildings is partially to blame unfortunately. Just look at Jakarta, it is sinking.

Singapura di langgar Todak.

😂😂😂😂😂 so scary!

So we can rule n control nature. Just do something n nature will obey you. Simpletons

The things is, neighbour one by one are banning soil and sand export to them.

*World Know More?* 👈 (👎👎👎)

‘Long Island’ will block out the natural water flows. Could this ‘kill’ the beach front?

Your narrative is too loaded with big words, Singaporeans are practical and thus please go straight to the point instead of sounding like a high school student trying to impress the examiner marking his A-level essay...

But cant save future growing singaporean...

Long Island strategy doesn’t sound correct. Better to learn from Chongqing of PRC by elevating the living space. Abandon the submerged space.

Long Island - can house more new immigrants. 10million population is a reality some days, thanks to climate change.

Is this channel funded by the SIN gov't?

Thank goodness I chabot already 😂left behind are my siblings 😅 good for them.

The Greater Bay Area aka "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao" will replace Singapore as the next financial hub.

Singapore economy never made long term sense

In any case. chinese wont b reading tis .,, !

Made in China

all imigran to Malaysia

World wealthiest country, yet the poor cannot afford to get sick and die.??

If Singapore reclaims 8 square km, it means another 8 square km elsewhere in the neighbouring countries will be flooded. This is not a neighbourly thing to do. It's best the money is spend by building a thick high wall around the island.Singapore needs to sacrifice the beaches to safe their island. For a beach Singaporeans can go to Malaysia and Indonesia.

Climate change propaganda

God is the only Creator. its creatures cant never do anything against the Creators will, not even a try to play god. nevertheless the shameless creatures may continue to suck bloods to fund the potentially doomed project tho.

They should all move to Hainan, China, the Hawaii of the East. The island is 40 times the size of Singapore with a population density of 10 times less, so it will be able to absorb the whole of Singapore's population of some 6 million. The Malays can migrate to Johore, Malaysia, and the Indians to India if they wish. China is facing a population decline so I am sure they will consider this proposal, especially young people since they had low birth for a couple of decades.

It is not difficult to understand why Singapore is sinking. MRT lines are sooo deep, trains' vibrations surely effect Singapore's foundation. Besides, underground sewerage tunnels share with mrt tunnels. Singapore is quite hollow. Tampering with nature just for the sake of progress could well cause imbalance of our earth.
