Hi all,

Am going to Borneo next week on short notice. desperately need a book and can't find one anywhere in HK. Does anyone have any field guide for the region I can borrow?

Thanks a million

Thanks. yes, I heard you can buy it at the airport and in KK city too, so i will do that. I hope to have a few days with it to study up before entering the park.

There's a shop in Wisma Merdeka (beside the Hyatt) in KK that has all the Borneo wildlife books you could want.  The book is also available in Kinabalu HQ, just back from there.

The older Mackinnon / Phillips book is also available through the HK library.  I recommend learning as many of the calls as possible through xeno-canto before you go.  And bring an umbrella.
