What is left of the tower and erosion on the shoreline at present day. — LIM BENG TATT/The Star

Traders and massage service providers – some of whom have been operating there for almost 20 years – will have to be relocated to safer ground as the beach is now over a metre lower than how it looked like in pictures from about 10 years ago.
