In the decade between 1993 and 2002, the total area of sand/
mudflats in Singapore dropped only slightly to 7.63 km2, mostly
due to small losses along the northern coast of P. Tekong (0.33 km2)
and the eastern coast of P. Ubin (0.21 km2). However, by 2011,
reclamation at P. Tekong encompassed several neighbouring
islands and their sand and mudflats, after which the country-wide
total of this habitat was 5.00 km2
