Siloso Beach reopens for water activities after oil spill cleanup

The water quality at the beach has returned to normal levels.

Siloso Beach has reopened for water activities and beachfront businesses are now fully operational, the Sentosa Development Corporation (SDC) said on 3 August.

Siloso Beach, along with the Southern Island beaches were temporarily closed following an oil spill incident on 14 June. The extensive cleanup operations, involving over 300 trained workers, were completed in one and a half months instead of the initially expected three-month timeline.

During the cleanup, the National Environment Agency (NEA) regularly monitored the water quality at Siloso Beach, which has returned to normal levels.

Meanwhile, Palawan and Tanjong beaches, also affected by the oil spill, are in the final phase of cleanup operations, expected to be completed by mid-August. The waters at these beaches will reopen for water activities once the water quality returns to normal levels.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
