natural vegetation lesson 4 mangrove forests

reflections on the <singapore's ugly mangrove swamps> article

I do quite agree that the sungei buloh wetland reserve, the only mangrove swamp that i have ever visited, is really infested with mosquitoes. the sugei buloh wetland reserve is actually a extremely beautiful place, especially for the unique plant and animal species diversity. I remembered, when i was there 3 years ago, during on of my school's field trips organised after PSLE, I was fantasized at the unique structure of the pencil roots and i loved sitting at the extended hut built, admiring the school of birds. it is a really nice place which i would totally disagree upon what the author actually described the swamp as, "ugly" . To me, it is not ugly at all, it is just the mosquito that is such a nuisance.
