Singapore, Borneo and Malaysia - 2007

This time I visited Singapore, jetted off to Borneo for a few days, then went to Kuala Lumpur to check out the Petronas towers.

Singapore

Not many pictures of Singapore as a lot of the things I got up to were either dark (Night Safari) or just lounging around. However I did mangage to get to Sentosa Island - where the locals go for some light relief.

Borneo

In Borneo I stayed in Kuching which is a lovely friendly place. Unfortunately no photos of me with the orangutans or the proboscis monkeys as I was too busy watching them to take any photos. But I've included some links at the bottom of the page.

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

This is where I stopped off to see the Petronas Towers.

Kuching - I don't know who runs this site but it's got far more pictures on it than the official one.
Kuching cat museum - hard to find a website, but this blog entry is good
Semenggoh Orangutan sanctuary that I visited. Hard to find a link, but basically four of us (and me) hired a taxi to take us to the sanctuary from our hotel, wait for us, then take us back again and it cost a little over £10 - highly recommended!

It's hard to find information on the monkeys in Baku national park (also known as Bako) but again, we arranged a trip from our hotel, with a private tour guide who took us there - first in his car, then we got a boat, then he accompanied us around the park. It was a very reasonable price.
