Special thanks to Chris Viney, Nick Deacock, Friends of AOP, Dandy Soeparan and Pak Herry Roustaman for the special efforts into this campaign.

Please forward the article to as many of your friends and relatives when possible :)

Nick and Kirk,
It will be great if you can please keep an eye on the impact of this article to enquiries/sales re: travel to Kalimantan, and let us know the statistics when the data is available.
Unfortunately it was not made explicit in the printed version while we actually had put a request for it, However the online version had links to both bali on any budget and the AOP website.

what they say about US !!! 

My family had a wonderful time at Tanjung Puting National Park and we wish to thank Herry, and the Rimba orangutan eco-lodge staff as well as Alan and Meryl for our successful trip. We saw big Tom and all the girls at camp leakey. We especially loved the more nervous wild male orangutan at the Harapan feeding site. He was special. We saw many proboscis and macaques. How amazing is this National Park! I cant wait to get to the other lodges at Way Kambas and the new siamang lodge. What a trip.

Borneo is well known as Kalimantan means “ River of Diamond “ Kalimantan is devided into four propinces,i.e East Kalimantan, West Kalimantan, Central Kalimantan and South Kalimantan. Many of the island’s creatures have adapted to the condition of life in the rainforest. Original people from Kalimantan are called “ Dayak “ means people who live up stream. And it is still possible to visit longhouse, huge structures on stilts that house an entire village.The stilts were originally a measure of protection againts marauding head hunter. Most Dayak People still hack their rice fields out of the jungle, burning the brush to provides nutrients to generally poor soil.
For more of us, Borneo is simply home, for others, it is a far off land with a name that is redolent of headhunters, orangutan-utan and steamy jungles. For any pespective, Borneo is one of the most important centres of biodiversity in the world. It teems with wildlife that is the envy of other places, yet we know for sure that there are still literally thousands of plants and animals still to be covered. It is also home to the many indigenous culture that the various Borneon people have developed in harmony with their natural environment.
Borneo may have the greatest plant diversity of any region on earth. Conservative estimates suggest that Borneo contains more than 15.000 plants species, including over 3.000 species of tree, in excess of 2.500 orchids and more than 50 carnivorous pitcher plants are endemic: a figure in excess of 6.000 has been suggested, including 155 endemic species of dipterocarp tree
