HEAVEN ON EARTH - BORNEO

There are too many things to discover in Borneo Island. Borneo is the center of biodiversity for pitcher plants (Nepenthes spp.),  wild fighting fish (Betta spp.) , Borneo sucker fish (Gastromyzon spp.) , Cryptocoryne (Aroid), Schismatoglottis (Aroid) and others flora and fauna. Every year, new species of flora & fauna are discovered by the  scientists in the dense jungle of Borneo. Besides, there are so many great places to visit in Borneo. Here, you can find the largest cave chambers in the world, the longest cave passage, the beautiful coral reefs, the pre-historic caves, the tallest peak in South East Asia, the second longest and largest river in South East Asia, the oldest tropical rainforest ......  In short, Borneo is a heaven on earth !!!
