I'm working as a freelance tour guide and main interest is birding. Live near Kinabalu National Park and it has one of the highest concentration of endemics for Borneo Island. Other places of interest nearby is Tuaran and Kota Belud district for wader watching during the migratory season, as well on the east coast of Sabah, places such as the Kinabatangan River, Danum Valley and Tabin Wildlife Sanctuary.

Cheong is a great guy. Very friendly and knowledgeable in birds and jungle environment. To me - coming from cold Scandinavia - it was great to be shown so many birds and have such an entertaining day. Cheong is also witty and funny which did make the day even more fun. Highly recommended - will contact again next time I am in Asia. Thomas Hagstrom thomas.hagstrom(AT)comdatsec.com
