    Happy belated Merdeka (Independence) day to everyone in Malaysia!!!

    More on this link:

    The fireworks on the early morning of August 31, 2006 to celebrate the 49th Independence day of Malaysia. This year, the celebration was held in Kuching.







    On Aug. 31, I planned to explore the coastal area between the river mouth of Batang Sadong and Batang Lupar, but when I reached at the ferry crossing point, there is no ferry at all. The new coastal road & bridges at the lower part of Batang Sadong were completed not long ago & also this new ferry service. I shall be back in the near future.





    A tributary of upper part of Batang Samarahan.






    The burned land. The farmers in Borneo believe that fire is the best "tool" to clear the land for agriculture.

    A temporary nursery ground for young paddies. The farmers will uproot the plants and re-plant them in the paddy field few weeks later.





    Hanguana malayana found abundantly near a natural pond on the way to upper Batang samarahan.






    Crinum asiaticum (Amaryllidaceae).





    Pitcher of Nepenthes mirabilis.
