Geography | | English term or phrase: maritime feature | "Pedra Branca means "white rock" in Portuguese, and refers to whitish guano (bird droppings) deposited on the rock by the black-naped tern, which used the island as a nesting ground.[1] This name is used by both the English-language and Malay-language press in Singapore.[2] Malaysia formerly referred to the island as Pulau Batu Puteh, which means "white rock island" in Malay, but the Government of Malaysia subsequently decided to drop the word Pulau ("Island"). In August 2008 Foreign Minister Rais Yatim said Malaysia considered that the ***maritime feature*** did not meet internationally recognised criteria for an island, that is, land inhabited by humans that had economic activity.[3]"
