Soft and delicate…

I’ve never really felt Singapore’s beaches were worth treasuring, as there is nothing much there anyway, given all the land reclamation going on. But when i heard of the oil spill which left the East Coast and Changi beach covered in oily sludge, I suddenly had the urge to visit all the other beaches before they are affected too. They have never meant so much to me before..

Being a major petroleum refinery, Singapore is highly susceptible to oil spills. The beaches are lifeless enough without all the sludge, and all it takes is a couple of oil spills to finish them off.
