He found a Malay settlement at the mouth of the Singapore River headed by Temenggong Abdul Rahman for the Sultan of Johor The Temenggong had originally moved to Singapore from Johor in 1811 with a group of Malays and when Raffles arrived there were an estimated 150 people governed by the Temenggong mostly of them Malays with around 30 Chinese. Although the island was nominally ruled by Johor the political situation was precarious for the Sultan of Johor at the time The incumbent Sultan of Johor Tengku Abdul Rahman was controlled by the Dutch and the Bugis and would never agree to a British base in Singapore However Abdul Rahman was Sultan only because his older brother Tengku Hussein also known as Tengku Long had been away in Pahang getting married when their father died Hussein was then living in exile in the Riau Islands.

However according to official forecasts water demand in Singapore is expected to double from 380 to 760 million gallons per day between 2010 and 2060 The increase is expected to come primarily from non-domestic water use which accounted for 55% of water demand in 2010 and is expected to account for 70% of demand in 2060 By that time water demand is expected to be met by reclaimed water at the tune of 50% and by desalination accounting for 30% compared to only 20% supplied by internal catchments.
