Thank you for helping out with the trash! Don’t be bothered by the negative comments as there are always such people who can’t handle the truth. Many thanks for another great video!
I'm guessing those people with the negative comments are doing their part and cleaning up the garbage at the beaches every weekend, otherwise they should shut up and put money where their mouth are.
Great videos from you Richard. You are actually bringing me to places that I haven't been before. They are not just informative but also educational. Please keep going. Thanks.
Thanks for helping with the clean up. The problem with rubbish on beaches is that it crosses borders. Thrash on Singaporean beaches might come from Indonesia and China, and thrash from Singapore might end up in Bali. Thrash also stays for a really long time, so it could be thrash from decades ago. Its a very tricky problem.
This is another good recording which shown a part of Singapore that many locals may had forgotten, well done. Not to worry too much about those who criticize for not helping clearing those rubbish.. any way, you had done a good job.
Appreciate your effort man. Those ppl who commented on the sister island video of yours , are they even doing their part by keeping SG clean ? Haters gonna be haters man. Keep up ur awesome educational videos man. Love it.
Thank you for showing us our island, that we 'missed' exploring, as it doesn't has a direct ferry. We love Singapore islands too. Once Covid is more 'stable', maybe we can meet and do videos together. Plus, we can extend another 2 pairs of helping hands, to help clear some rubbish. 😉 I've subscribed to your channel, and to see from your eyes around our little sunny island, Singapore. Hee~ We are from SeeDoEat TV with 拖鞋帮, catch up with you soon.
Thank you for helping out the trash, indeed that's really nice of you. Perhaps next time I would like to follow you for your next exploring Singapore. :)
Yet another great video! Thank you for your efforts in cleaning up as well. Ignore the negative comments too and keep up with those interesting videos!
So sweet of you on helping us to keep our beach clean😊👍, those of you who throw trash around, u should be ashamed of yourselves....and yes, sign me up to join you on your next beach clean up😊👍
I wanted to comment on your previous Q&A for some scenic spots in Singapore for photography. After watching this I found my new playground. Never knew places like this and I can see how a couple of worthy shorts can be had even if I can't travel at all this year.
a lot of boatman operating in the port limits are Indonesian.. many practically live on the boats and they could be dumping their trash into the water and it gets washed up onto the islands...
@@AsiaHikelopedia yup that's where we all have to do our own part recycling our own trash's . Wow you got guts to walk in the water like that haha I hope you had fun in the island look's like a nice place to chill out haha have fun & stay safe mate , thank you for the information about the place & what happened on the island and size of the island lol , were there any snakes , lizards ect.... wildlife ? Oh dear it's pouring cats & dogs .
@@TattoosLovers the problem is not recycling. recycling is not a one stop magical saviour and even for most developed nations, it does not work as it has been marketed and advertised. recycling, in fact is dangerous, because it gives people the license to be less mindful as long as they "recycle". the real problem is consumption, aka reduce and reuse.
Thx Richard. It's an excellent video. I been scuba diving there at 1 of the pier. Haven't had the chance to step on the island. U are right about the rubbish, some of us diver have been collecting rubbish on the sea floor. Everyone needs to pitch in. Each time 1 go down I make it a point to bring some rubbish up. Unfortunately I couldn't post any video on the comments, there's a very nice eco system in the waters around Hantu. Last dive I video a clown fish (Nemo) about the size half of an A4 paper. Awareness is criterial to preserve what little nature we have in Singapore
I was gonna mention about the scuba diving in P. Hantu. Did my first open water dive there in 1996 and remembered the poor water visibility. Surprised you can even see a clown fish in those waters!
@@jsurfin1 looks like we have things in common. I did my open water in 1996 as well. Recently started to dive more frequently after my daughter did her open water this year in March. With the lockdown we could only dive locally. I was just as surprised with the local sea life. Been there 6x. Visability is still bad but there are times u get lucky with about 3 - 5meters.
Thank you for sharing this video. I lived here in Singapore for more than 40 years and haven't even been to Pulau Ubin let alone Pulau Hantu. At least now I have been "virtually there" through your video lol!
Like everything it's globotrash. The bigger problem is choking air pollution when they burn the stubble in Indonesia and the smoke drifts towards Singapore. When you said the crossing was possible at low tide I expected to see the path open up like in the ' ten commandments'. Pulau Hantu bears checking out.
Bravo! Thanks for covering, ignore those naysayers, all good deeds does not deserves any comments. Do wish to join you to help do a clean up, will follow and hopefully once covid ends we can do it! Keep it up!
It’s great to know that you have done your homework well before embarking on this project. Even I, myself, being a Singaporean, am shy to say that I am not as knowledgeable as you concerning the background of this place. Good work and well done. Thanks
Hi Richard, I love the quality and wholesomeness of your content! I'm confused as to which Singapore islands you've visited, there are more than I thought... Could you make a simple map of the those you've visited so far in your videos? Then you could update it as you go :) Thumbs up for the beach clean up! Merry Christmas from Paris
Thanks so much for bringing awareness to the beauty of this island, and it's fragility, impacted by all this trash floating around. I, for my part, will surely come down soon-ish :)
Thank you for doing your bit to help Rich! Internet Trolls will always hate... thats just how they are, ignorant. Now if this comment gets hate, you'll know who the trolls are.
Richard try explore more on malaysia jungle and waterfall after both border fully open ......try batu caves, chilling waterfall, kemansiah waterfall-there is a restaurant beside waterfall river
Pulau Hantu and a couple other southern islands were closed between 2018 and 2019 due to findings of asbestos among beach debris, so do be careful you're clearing litter there.
@@AsiaHikelopedia aaaaah... nice. So a friend of mine was just telling me about a boat charter to Pulau Hantu.. I think this was it! haha Hope to meet u some day
You really have the gumption :D to cross to the Pulau Hantu Besar not afraid of the fast undercurrent could knock you off your feet or there might be trenches along the seabed.
Thanks for your concern, but I waited for someone else to cross first. hahaha! But seriously, I am a strong swimmer and used to work as a lifeguard many years ago. There was no danger.
Hi, At Marine South Pier, Which boat cruise company should go to purchase the tickets going Pulau Hantu ?? Does the boat bring the customer back to Marine South Pier ??
Good to have kayak you can hop from island to island around there. So good of you to collect trashes along the beach even grassroot don't have that spirit
My take is we are an island surrounded by countries nearby. Because of this geographical proximity and due to the water currents, rubbish inevitably appears on our shores. And for all we know, these rubbish might be lying there on the shores for years!
Yes! Beach clean up team! Sign me up. =) it has been since a long while i do a street cleanup. Yes... Singapore inlands people also throw rubbish. I am annoyed.
Thank you for picking up the trash! I wonder how much of the trash has been washed ashore from the sea. I read there is a big patch of trash floating in Pacific Ocean. Looks like it could be a global issue.
I like the part where you showed the rain (fm heavy to smaller rain to rain stopping) and the surroundings. I thought that was beautiful, nice... 😍💘!! As for the negative comments abt rubbish, sometimes some of our locals are like in a state of denial, thinking that we dun litter. Actually that's not true. Littering comes from both locals and foreigners alike. Unfortunately most times, the ones I saw are locals (incl adults who set bad examples) yes! I have personally witnessed local youths, usually secondary school to poly age, actually throwing or leaving trash behind (normally bubble tea or McDonald cups, wrappers). I also hv seen expat kids (meaning ang moh kids, again around same age) doing the same, left Mc cups in a bus and alighted/ left. It boils down to respect for environment and most of all, family teaching 家教。A few times around the neighborhood, I can't stand discarded plastic bags ruining the nice grass. So I picked up the rubbish plastic and bin them. To conclude, personally I believe that instead of blaming others, we should start w. ourselves and families first, adults esp. Yes.
Wonderful video! Re the trash situation. Seeing the way they are formed in a line close to the shore, it does indicate that they were washed ashore from the sea. I am guessing the trash came from the boats nearby.
Thank you for the clean up. What were you eating? Looks delish. I did a big beach clean up once at Ubin. Great workout. The rubbish was unbelievable and I think they came from everywhere. Def agree govs and corporations can lead the way.
A devil is more honest with its appearance than 'The Devils In Disguise'..."you look like an angel, talk like an angel, walk like an angel..." It's my Elvis' favourite song.
The rubbish situation on the northern shores of Punggol area from Coney Island to Punggol Marina is much more disgusting during this monsoon season or whenever a strong northerly blows. The authorities have been cleaning up regularly but it is hard to catch up with the amount of rubbish flowing in with the winds and tides. Also the people fishing along the promenade especially along the stretch outside the soon to be completed new flats between Punggol Marina and Punggol settlement litter the place heavily with all kinds of rubbish on a daily/ nightly basis with impunity.
Thank you for helping out with the trash! Don’t be bothered by the negative comments as there are always such people who can’t handle the truth. Many thanks for another great video!
Thank you so much!
I fully agreed, just ignore them.
Exactly, just ignore them because most of us still not willing to clear our own meal trays at McDonald's.
I'm guessing those people with the negative comments are doing their part and cleaning up the garbage at the beaches every weekend, otherwise they should shut up and put money where their mouth are.
Tq for doing ur part in the clean-up..highly commendable.
Government or NGOs can sponsor public free rides to these islands in exchange for a bagful of beach trash.
Great videos from you Richard. You are actually bringing me to places that I haven't been before. They are not just informative but also educational. Please keep going. Thanks.
Glad you like them!
Eventually when things open up, would absolutely be interested in doing some sort of group cleanup! Let's keep Singapore (and our planet) clean!
always looking forward to your vids every sat morning!

Thrash on Singaporean beaches might come from Indonesia and China, and thrash from Singapore might end up in Bali. Thrash also stays for a really long time, so it could be thrash from decades ago.

Hear of the Marpol Conventions allow dumping of the seas 50 nautical miles from shore. Great idea!, don't you think so?
This is another good recording which shown a part of Singapore that many locals may had forgotten, well done. Not to worry too much about those who criticize for not helping clearing those rubbish.. any way, you had done a good job.
not really ,i hate those who complain and dont take action , not taking action then dont complain , lol
Nice to see drone shots! And thanks for helping with cleanup!
Appreciate your effort man. Those ppl who commented on the sister island video of yours , are they even doing their part by keeping SG clean ? Haters gonna be haters man. Keep up ur awesome educational videos man. Love it.
Thank you for a lovely video. Great that you did your part in.cleaning. I'm a new fan of your channel. Keep em coming.
Thanks and welcome
Thank u Richard u are so kind to pick up the rubbish.
I felt nervous when u were crossing the island. Thank God you are safe.
Love your videos. Thanks so much for in depth virtual touring into Singapore!!!

if everyone can do a mini cleanup whenever they go for a stroll on beaches, we can help to clean up our environment significantly.
You go Bro! May The Lord bless you for doing your little bit on Pulau Hantu! Good job! 😁👍👍👍👌

Thank u for doing the islands a service. Subscribed.
Thank you for the clean up!!! Love the vid!

Feel good to watch your videos since I am a Taiwanese been living in SG for four years. :) I miss Taiwan and gradually love SG.
Glad you like them!

Thumbs up for the beach clean up!
Merry Christmas from Paris
Thanks. So far I've been to St Johns/Lazarus, Sisters Islands and Pulau Hantu.
Thank you for helping to clean up the beaches! 😀
Thanks for making this video. I hope your video alerts NEA about the trash issues.
Sorry, NEA 'buckmanship' to NPark, just like 'the fish-balls stick' in Ang Mo Kio. TOLAK! ..
好棒! Great adventure! Cool! Maybe monkey busy eating or swimming?! Camping overnight sounds cool! More adventure next time! 谢谢你
Next time!
I’m ON for the beach cleaning, Rich.
I think 90% of the rubbish there are thrown overboard by passing merchant ship and ends up drifting onto the islands.
East coast n other coastlines alot picnickers and whatsnot left rubbish also. Dun try to blame others when we have problematic ppl.
Thanks so much for bringing awareness to the beauty of this island, and it's fragility, impacted by all this trash floating around.
I, for my part, will surely come down soon-ish :)
Thank you for doing your bit to help Rich! Internet Trolls will always hate... thats just how they are, ignorant. Now if this comment gets hate, you'll know who the trolls are.
Every little bit helps - yes organizing a clean-up effort would help but you’re right. It’s the companies and govts that need to do more
Govt and companies? Oh hell yeah individual consumers are always the innocent ones right?
Great shots of the rain clouds and sky
Thanks for sharing this... will join for clean up for sure.
Awesome! Great video esp the drone view! Lovely... except the trash.... tts yucky. Thanks for the effort of cleaning.
Thanks for watching!
Nice aerial video! It looked like a Fimi X8 drone by the way.
Thanks. I use a Mavic Pro.
Thank you so much for your effort to clean up the beach. Appreciated it so much. Guys, let do our part to keep the environment clean!
Well said
Richard try explore more on malaysia jungle and waterfall after both border fully open ......try batu caves, chilling waterfall, kemansiah waterfall-there is a restaurant beside waterfall river
Btw, mind ask is it legal to go fishing there? Any notice board that says fishing activities is prohibited on the island?
I think you can fish there, although you'd better check first.
Well done on the clean up effort 👏👏👏
Thanks 👍
Good job,and very good video again!
Thank you! Cheers!
Overnight camp 😯interesting!😄
Great work trying to tidy up this beautiful area.
Thanks 👍
I visited in 1971, on a trip organised by the Sergeants mess at the former RAF Tengah. I was 10 years old
Pulau Hantu and a couple other southern islands were closed between 2018 and 2019 due to findings of asbestos among beach debris, so do be careful you're clearing litter there.
all in for a cleanup and camping excursion!
Great video....and tq so much for yr kind gesture of cleaning up the beach...hope pple cld throw rubbish more responsible....
Nice one Richard! Love to see u on ur adventures. Could the boat head to Pulau Hantu besar? Or are they only able to stop at Pulau Hantu kecil?

Good to educate people through video not to litter in order to enjoy a clean environment. 👍😍
Thank you for your effort. Most appreciated 🙏
Welcome!
Thank you for picking up the trash! I wonder how much of the trash has been washed ashore from the sea. I read there is a big patch of trash floating in Pacific Ocean. Looks like it could be a global issue.
Most of it I think. And it's definitely local trash (from Asia) as you can tell from the brands/language on the packaging.
Your are a good role model for Sg 👍👍
I try
Thank you, Let me join you on your next adventure please!!!!
Wah, Ang moh clean the beach for us wor.

I forgot to add in the description. Will add later!
