WHAT makes Singapore unique? Is it our quaint shophouses, old buildings from colonial times, antique monuments or lush rainforests?
Singapore's heritage is a hotchpotch of cultural relics and natural beauty, and efforts towards their preservation made by the authorities are laudable.
However, I must speak for our more elusive natural heritage sites that are being neglected.
Reefs, seen only underwater or at low tides, are a marine heritage unknown to many Singaporeans.
If you have ever marvelled at the panoramic spreads in National Geographic and curious animals detailed in Sir David Attenborough's travels, know that you can view the same for yourself without even leaving our shores.
One such place is Cyrene reef, a 10-minute boat ride from the mainland.
