Written by a Malaysian Under the 1961 & 1962 water agreements between Malaysia and Singapore, is Singapore unreasonable paying 3 sen for raw water? A typical Malaysian who lived in Malaysia for more than a decade Answered Sat To avoid accusation of biaseness, I would like to emphasise that I am a Malaysian who has stayed in Malaysia for over a decade. But I side with facts and reasoning than solely on emotion basis. Lets get straight into our evaluation: From just looking at the price context, it may seem that the Agreement is unfair to Malaysia, and is advantageous to Singapore. This is because Singapore is entitled to import a very substantial amount of 250M gallons of raw water at a very low price of RM0.03/1000 gallons while Johor is entitled to import only 5M gallons of treated water at RM0.50/1000 gallons. However, we have made an assumption that Singapore has use of all of its 250million gallons entitlement of water imports. As a matter of fact, Singapore has been reducing its reliance on water imports since a decade ago. Hence, the actual import of water is more likely to be about 100million gallons below the entitled water imports ever since 2009 and onwards. On a side note, the question should also have used the current import price of raw water of RM0.10/1000 gallons, not RM0.03/1000 gallons to evaluate the fairness, since the latter price is no longer valid ever since the first Agreement expired. On Singapore’s side, Singapore sell treated water that is 75% subsidised (before subsidy RM2.50/1000gallons) at the price of only RM0.50/1000gallons to Johor, at 16M gallons on top of the 5M gallons that Johor is entitled to import. We have also forgotten to take into account the benefit Johor government reap (on top of Singpapore’s loss), from charging water price on par with the real water treatment cost on Johor citizens for consuming the highly subsidised treated water imported from Singapore. It is an indefensible case. Moreover, we should understand that the then-Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew had also made an offer of RM0.45/1,000 gallons of water to Mahathir in September 2001, but was promptly rejected as Mahathir wasn’t willing to compromise a little on his optimistic price of RM0.60/1,000 gallons back in 2001 and hence the current price remained. Furthermore, we should realise that PUB Singapore has paid for the construction of Linggu Reservoir (1990) in Johor and also the use of Johor land for water catchment, where Singapore draws its imported water from. Hence, it can be said that even the cost of production, capital cost for abstracting raw water itself are entirely paid by Singapore. Besides, Johor also benefits in the long run, from the land usage payment, and the facilities built on Johor land, fully funded by Singapore. Hence, we shouldn’t use the price Johor sells raw water to Melaka or other states (RM0.50/ 1000 gallons) as a template, because this price is factoring in the cost of production and facilities paid by Johor for abstracting raw water from Johor to Melaka. In Singapore’s case, this are all paid by Singapore. To conclude, Singapore has been consistently developing its water sources which includes the NEW water (which exceeds WHO drinking water standards), desalinated seawater, water catchment areas, and has been instilling water responsibility mindset to all Singaporeans. Looking at the current rate of development, sided by the environmental changes, pollution of Johor rivers, and Johor’s unusually high water consumption per capita, I wouldn’t be surprised when the time comes that Johor has to import desalinated seawater from Singapore.

Even since before Najib had all the 1MDB scandals, it was quite apparent in several of Lee Kuan Yew's and PAP's quotes that Mahathir was infavourable towards Singapore since its independence. Back when he was first in power, Mahathir knew Malaysia was benefitting tremendously from all the bilateral deals with Singapore. With globalisation peaking in the early 21st century and the SG economy facing unprecedented rapid growth, the benefits of all the priorly made agreements became less one-sided, but sadly for our Tun Dr M, he was no longer Malaysia's policy maker. The only card he has now is the unammended price after 50+ years (the deal was 1962 btw, this old man's memory is waning), but the fact is the agreement is still very fair to both sides. The price at which SG sells treated water to Malaysia has also remained the same. He's just salty he isn't benefitting as much now, like how he has always been salty of Lee Kuan Yew's success

No, you cannot raise the price of the water, because it is inherently against the legally binding contract as signed back in 1962, of which states the stipulated price for which Malaysia should charge for her water. As for the imbeciles who believe that 3 sens per thousand gallon is too cheap, consider this. Singapore also permits Johor to draw up to 5 million gallons of *TREATED* water a day, which is exponentially more expensive to produce than raw water. In reality, however, Malaysia has been drawing closer to 16 million, of which Singapore graciously provides. Malaysia, on the other hand, sells raw water to Singapore, which requires little to no resources or effort to obtain. All Malaysia has to do to obtain said water is to wait for precipitation to fill the reservoirs in Johor that was built by, you guessed it-Singapore. In other words, selling this water to Singapore is *free* money.

Our state government can produce more and cheaper than your country's water 3. We don't need your water, but the agreement that was set during 1926 has been changed that the Malaysian government MUST buy treated water from SG or it is considered in breach of the agreement, we sell 3 sen per gallon, you sell more expensive than the original price even we don't need it, go try search Mahathir debates with Singaporean students at Oxford, from there we can see how your "smart" students at Oxford think, please don't be one side too because you are singapore, the wrong is still wrong.

[@NC000C]

Malaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, apart from personally choosing not to review the price of water in 1987 , had a further opportunity to revise the price. In a letter to then Senior Minister Lee Kuan Yew, Tun Dr Mahathir offered to sell water to Singapore at a "fair price" of 60 sen per 1,000 gallons, in return for concessions on other elements of an overall package. Responding to the offer in a letter dated April 23, 2001, Mr Lee said that if there was "give and take on both sides, an agreement is possible". It was in this spirit that Mr Lee visited Kuala Lumpur in September 2001. But while negotiations were in progress, the Malaysian government raised the asking price to RM3 per 1,000 gallons, 100 times the existing price of raw water. This demand made it difficult for common ground to be reached, and led to a stalemate in the negotiations. Rather than rummage through history and indulge in the politics of envy, Dr Mahathir should look into the future and see how the issue of water price can be resolved. Until then, Singapore will stand by the terms of the 1962 Water Agreement. Any breach of that agreement would, according to Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan, call into question the Separation Agreement, which is the basis for Singapore's existence as an independent sovereign state.

I understand that Singapore is trying to achieve water self-sufficiency by 2060, in a manner which is sustainable and economically viable for the country and its citizens... However, there seems to be so many issues to resolve in the next 40 years: (1) Singapore is expecting the non-domestic industrial water users (e.g. Wafer Fabrication and Semiconductor sector, the Refineries, Petrochemicals and Chemicals sector and the Biomedical sector, etc.) to account for almost 70% of water demand by 2060. Reducing water demand by such non-domestic industrial water users seems like a logical path. (2) Even after Singapore achieved water self-sufficiency, it would probably be wise to maintain and renegotiate the water agreement with Malaysia for rainy day situations (irony 🤣), e.g. during long period of dry spell. Hopefully, Singapore and Malaysia can have a peaceful negotiation then. After all, ASEAN with a population of over 600 million (if united) has the potential to rival the big players (e.g. USA, China EU, etc.).
