Under the roof

In 2013 my friend Mr Wong invited me to join a 6 weeks expedition true Malaysia going up to Borneo which I gladly accepted.
The goal of this travel was crossing the country , getting an understanding of Malaysias nature and it’s stunning wildlife.
Mr Wong , born Malaysian was the ultimate guide showing me beside nature also Culture , folklore while visiting many friendly local people in different parts of Malaysia.


My principal interest was the wide range of primates with more particularly the proboscis monkeys and Urang Utangs .
Endemic to Borneo , found almost exclusively in a mixed mangrove forest but threatened by permanent destruction of their habitat.
Close encounters with these monkey’s can be done in the privately run Proboscis monkey sanctuary at labuk bay.
During feeding time many monkeys come close sometime offering good photo opportunities .
We spent the entire day simply admiring these amazing primates.
