Achievement at a glance
The Turtle Hatchery on Pulau Subar Darat (Small Sister’s Island) was launched on 29 September 2018. Beach patrols involving volunteer members of the public started in June 2017. The turtle tagging program (both using satellite and flipper tags) was initiated from mid-June 2019 with guidance from a regional turtle expert who visited Singapore to conduct a hands-on workshop for regular volunteers and staff on the techniques. Two satellite tags and three flippers tags were attached to three individuals in 2020.Challenges faced in implementation
