Pedra Branca or Pulau Batu Puteh is an outcrop of rocks situated where the Singapore Strait meets the South China Sea. The Horsburgh Lighthouse on the island was built in 1851. The island, together with nearby islands Middle Rocks and South Ledge, is currently the subject of a territorial dispute between Singapore and Malaysia that is being determined by the International Court of Justice.

In common law, adverse possession is the process by which title to another’s real property is acquired without compensation, by, as the name suggests, holding the property in a manner that conflicts with the true owner‘s rights for a specified period of time. Circumstances of the adverse possession determine the type of title acquired by the disseisor, which may be fee simple title, mineral rights, or another interest in real property.

The law of adverse possession is partly statutory and partly common law. The required period of uninterrupted possession arises out of a statutory limitation period or statute of limitations. Other elements of adverse possession are judicial constructs.

The haze is getting terrible outdoors due to more people burning their plantations in indonesia at the same time, and the current wind direction blows it all to Singapore and Malaysia. The PSI was at a high of 150 in Singapore, and already 300+ in some parts of Malaysia and indonesia. Every breath you take is almost as bad as smoking, and schools will be closed if it worsens.
