Abstract:
Singapore is often cited as a role model for good water management. It serves as an excellent case study for other regions which are similarly lacking in natural water resources. The resources in the resource guide are arranged chronologically by date of publication, and cover important milestones in our water heritage. These include water management under British rule, water agreements with Malaysia, the formation of the Public Utilities Board (PUB) in 1963, and how Singapore has continued throughout the years to explore the use of technology and other means to increase the water supply.
