i believe they are an imported species, much like tiong mei mei's running amok with native sinkie uncles. the local species is no match for fierce and voracious atb's. :p
The otters are not so much imported as it is returned; the species was here before industrialisation, died out or was driven away when we polluted their habitats, and have now returned because conditions have changed.
The koi, on the other hand, are imported in every sense of the word.
Between the otters and the koi, I'll choose the otters.

In the late 80's, during the economic boom, people were crazy about koi. It was supposed to bring good luck. To the rich, it was a symbol of wealth. Dr. WCC had the most expensive collection. He kept koi before the start of the craze so he was a true koi lover. TCB was the first president of the Koi Club.
At that time, the price for each sub-standard koi about 4 inch from Japan cost about $50. Today, it is difficult to find a decent fish farm or shop, let alone finding a decent koi. Thailand is good. Now, their koi is just as good as the Jap's if not better. More importantly, it is way cheaper.
when a hungry otter is there to eat the Koi,, so what does it symbolised then?
For the superstitious, it may symbolize bad luck as their "good luck" is eaten up.
For forumers in sbf, they will be keen to find out if the otters are local breed. If yes, then it may symbolize the locals are finally killing the ft. Otherwise, it means ultimately, ft will kill ft.
For me, it is just nature. There is not enough food in the wild so the otter has to find food in buildup area. It is most glad to find big juicy meals in a confined pond. If there is abundant food supply, wild animals will not take the risk to intrude into human territory.
It is humans who are intruding into wild animals' territory: cutting down forests to build their stupid roads and condos. Then they wonder why monkeys, squirrels and otters enter their residences to look for food.
Sentosa Cove residents don't vote...they "pay" for the government.

Do not forget wild boars, that were driven out of the reserve here, rumours says, it was hungry FT hunting them, that is why the crossed the road at Upper Thomson Rd/ junction of AMK Avenue 1, from Pierce Reservoirs....you usually see MONKEYS there, not wold boars..
"why did the wild boars crossed the road"??? ha ha ha
It symbolses meat eaters always win
it symobilised otter is the new wealth.
