At about 1.27, the reporter said we produced about 7.5 mil tons of waste last year. About half of that was recycled but "majority of the remaining was incinerated". So basically we recycle 50% and incinerated 50%? How is that a bad ratio? Have you checked the ratios of the so called more advanced countries? EU and Japan for example are less that 50%. CNA, can you be more balanced in your reporting pls?
How to balance? Govt got iron grasp over our media. Singapore number one in many things in the world but press freedom isn't one. Any news you take from local media need to take with not a pinch of salt but a huge ladle. Overseas the govt scared of the media. Singapore the media scared of the govt. Can kena POFMA and shut down. Cannot expect local media to be like that of overseas.
Why the experts are becoming clueless on how to increase and expand Semakau Island?. Why not expand its size or increase the landfill height and it might extend it life by another 50 years?
Shiny happy people holding hands? Landfill is half full, and there is alot of sludge that can't be incinerated. There are also chemicals that cannot be incinerate. Also, the plant is downwind to the ocean. I'd love to see someone do this in mid Europe.
Keep increasing the population and the government complaining that we are producing more waste
Could use the landfill to create sea wall.
They can shift to another island;Pulau sebapakau.
We gonna have 6.9 million people soon, we are to be blame for landfill!
Use this to refill east coast plan extending east coast park, and for other islands too.

cannot increase height, it must be below sea level, incase of rain
Singaporeans are wealthy and enjoy shopping.

Import less.
The island looks so beautiful. Where is the crisis? Doesn’t look like there is any crisis. Nothing to worry.
To be honest i never knew or heard about the Island Semakau until i watched this today. All i ever heard about is Salakau 😂
What else to do in Singapore but shop?
It's pathologic there.
Hidden cost of too many people
