T he article “PUB Singapore's Water Story” by the Public Utilities Board (PUB) (2020), reports that there should be a well established water infrastructure, as the water demand for the citizens is expected to double by 2060. PUB is initiating a few strategies to aid the demand, which is “collect every drop of water, reuse water endlessly, and desalinate seawater”. For that matter; imported water, local catchments, NEWater, a subsidiary of PUB, as well as desalinated water, are two of the national taps that provide the country with the supply of water. Local catchments, under PUB’s Programmes, play a part in engaging the citizens to have closer proximity with water, and learn to appreciate the finite supply. As the Singapore-Malaysia water agreement is set to expire in 2061, focusing on local catchments is crucial. Based on the article, NEWater and Desalination plants will be the main solutions to solve the water shortage in Singapore, although PUB has failed to mention the potentia...

In the article, “PUB Singapore's Water Story” on the Public Utilities Board (PUB) website (2020), states that Singapore should establish a well organised water infrastructure within the coming years. As the water demand for the citizens is expected to double by 2060, PUB is initiating a few strategies to aid with the demand. The strategies are; "collect every drop of water, reuse water endlessly, and desalinate seawater". Not only that, but imported water, local catchments, NEWater and desalinated water are the national taps that provide the country with the supply of water. As the Singapore-Malaysia water agreement is set to expire in 2061, focusing on ways to maiximise the use of local catchments is crucial. These local catchments, under PUB’s p rogrammes , also play a part in engaging the citizens to have closer proximity with water, and learn to appreciate the finite supply.

  In the article, “PUB Singapore's Water Story” by PUB (2020),  suggests that as the water demand for Singapore increases due to the population growth, there should be an implementation of a well organised water infrastructure. This would ensure that the water demand for the citizens, that may double by 2060, would be adequate and affordable.  There are key strategies that should be adopted in order to manage the water supply, which are; collect every drop of water, reuse water endlessly, desalinate seawater. Imported water, local catchments, NEWater and desalinated water are the national taps that provide the country with the supply of water. Even so, Singapore hopes to reduce the water consumption for households from 141 litres to 130 litres, and promote water conservation. As such, there is the programme that engages the community, which is called Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters (ABC Waters) to allow the citizens to have closer proximity with water, and learn to apprec...
