Had the chance to visit Pulau Semakau today..super good cos can take half a day off work and can go for a educational tour to a island which i nv heard before..
Our boat there..
The 4 of us..
Here we are at Pulau Semakau aka "rubbish island"
Why is it known as that? Becos the rubbish that was collected in Singapore and incinerated was bought here to this island for reclaiming..
The place where the ash was collected..
The island had a solar pane and wind mill for self sufficient electricity..
The island was used for recreation purpose..u can go for tour like mangrove or coral tour..BBQ or camping, educational tour for students, even star gazing at night..
Clever idea of using ash for reclaimed and can be used for recreational purposes too..the island will be reclaimed in 2045 if the rubbish amount we produced remain the same..so the main thing that they emphasized on was the 3R, Reuse, reduce and recycle..
Then we went for thai food at shaw towers..super nice food n cheap too :)


The whole table full!!!
