Two more new reservoirs in Singapore

Remember what I told the class about the damming of Sungei Serangoon (the river near our school)? It is finally completed! However, the water from the Serangoon reservoir is still undergoing desalting process, and will only be fit for consumption by the end of this year.

Together with the damming of Sungei Punggol, two more reservoirs are created bringing a total of 17 reservoirs in Singapore now, increasing our total water catchment areas from half to two-thirds of Singapore.

This will help Singapore attained self-sufficiency in water supply - a topic which you will be studying in Sec 2.
