A Timepiece named Chek Jawa Batik. 169; TANG Portfolio. 2014 has proven to be an exceptional good year for friends of Pulau Ubin and Chek Jawa as it comes to a close. It is as if the best has been left for the last. Ubin Day marked its place of significance in our local calendar on the 30. I left Pulau Ubin that day with happy memories too but unbeknownst to me my happiness would escalate a hundredfold as I read the news back at home. Workin...

The diversity of marine creatures witnessed by participants of our guided intertidal walks at Chek Jawa in May 2012 were amazing if not star-studded. Showcased below are findings in just one such walk. Enjoy! A rare Spiny sea star amongst the regular sea cucumbers, sea snails, crabs and shrimps. And an A-list must-see Seahorse. Besides the usual Flathead and Catfish, we found a Toadfish. Thank you, Chek Jawa : ).

Young Writers for A Better World. Wednesday, January 18, 2012. Gordonia penangensis: A Treasure on Keppel Island. Standing wild and free on the northern face of Keppel Island is a veritable grove of native trees of undisputed rarity and antiquity. It is really a miracle how they could have survived against the relentless pace of urban and economic development engulfing them from all sides. Yet they did. It was just a tiny island with a shack or two and a small untidy wharf on its southern shore. Over...

Young Writers for A Better World. Monday, June 25, 2012. Flying Fish Friends Speak. Say Lin, this is timely indeed. At the very least, your SINGAPORE WILD BOAR CHRONICLES.
