"Borneo's rainforests went to industrialized countries like Japan and the United States in the form of garden furniture, paper pulp and chopsticks. Initially most of the timber was taken from the Malaysian part of the island in the northern states of Sabah and Sarawak. Later forests in the southern part of Borneo, an area belonging to Indonesia and known as Kalimantan, became the primary source for tropical timber. Today the forests of Borneo are but a shadow of those of legend."

5 years ago I flew over the Malaysian part an it's amazingly sad to see how much is gone. I feel lucky that I was able to at least see and visit part of Borneo before all is gone.
