A wide area of tidal land disappeared after the government in 1997 closed a wall of floodgates in the bay in the western part of the Ariake Sea for a land reclamation project. Since then, a series of lawsuits has been filed over the project, not only by fishermen but also farmers who are using the reclaimed land. The government was ordered to open some of the floodgates for an environmental assessment, but it has not complied. (Photo: Richard Atrero de Guzman/Aflo)

REPORTAGE - Malaysia: Die Insel Penang
March 27, 2017- Georgetown, Penang, Malaysia: Land reclamation for infrastructure projects and property is becoming more widespread in Asia. On Penang Island, schemes are increasing, especially to build high class housing. The projects require large volumes of building materials, especially sand, and have an impact on the environment, especially marine biodiversity. The livelihoods of local fishermen are particularly impacted. Driven by high demand for housing, developers in Malaysia's Penang Island are artificially expanding the coastline and planning to construct new islands. Local fishermen say building works have already damaged their livelihoods, and fear further construction will destroy their fishing grounds. Mangroves and endangered bird species are also threatened, and the mining and transport of construction materials could spread adverse environmental impacts beyond just Penang.
