Overview
Pulau Ubin 10.19 km² One of the last rural areas to be found in
Singapore About 100 inhabitants of the island
Background Information
Maman Beach
Location
Maman Beach
Mamam Beach
Proposed Reclaimed Land
Breakwater
Sea
Attractions
Chek Jawa
Temples
Quarries
Sunny Receives a lot of sunlight throughout the year Suitable for harnessing solar energy
Windy Strong sea breeze is cooling and hence
requires less use of air conditioner
Benefits of the Location
Chek Jawa Harms and destroys marine ecosystem Destroy natural habitat
Other Beaches - Lack of space for resort - Too dirty
Why other places were not Suitable
Land will be reclaimed from the sea to be used to extend the shoreline
Small portion of the surrounding forests will also be deforested to : Provide more space for the resort Provide wood for construction of some parts of
the resort and furniture.
Land Reclamation
Hard engineering methods Breakwaters
Solid granite walls to protect the erosion of shoreline
Soft Engineering Methods Beach Nourishment Encouraging growth of coral reefs
Coastal Management
Structure will be made with recycled glass and steel to support the eco-theme
Solar panels will be installed on the roof of the resort to maximize the limited space.
Interior of rooms and furniture will be made from wood, which is visually appealing.
The Resort
1. Design - Using glass for the exterior of the resort, natural sunlight can be used for the lighting in the day
- Using wood for the interior of the resort allows a cooling effect on the rooms, making guests less inclined towards using air conditioning.
Green living practices in the resort
2. Light sensors can be installed at corridors, rooms and toilets of the resort, to reduce electricity consumption.
3. Washroom cisterns to have half-flush and full-flush functions
4. Leaflets and brochures to be printed with recycled paper.
Green living practices
5. Recycling bins will be situated throughout the resort, to encourage guests to recycle.
6. Food waste can be converted to compost and used as fertiliser for the plants around the resort
Green Living Practices
Mangrove swamps to be planted Reduce soil erosion Filters sea water Recycling bins Situated on various parts of the island
Chalets to be constructed from wood Abundant Naturally cooler
Eco - Friendliness
Solar-Powered Vans Transport tourists on free and easy tours
Bio fuel powered Trams Guided tours led by tour guides
Transportation
Solar Power Solar panels consist of solar cells which are
made up of semiconductors like silicon Light rays are absorbed by the semiconductors
and causes the electrons to be in an excited state, flowing in one direction along a wire, thus producing electricity
Green Technology
Wind Wind currents are erratic Not strong enough
Tidal Waves erratic Not strong enough to be used as a source of
energy
Green Technology (Rejected)
