In recent years, South Korea has become one of the leading technology industry countries in the world. The simple example is by looking the major development of the multinational company, Samsung. Extremely vast and fast innovation, even overtop its neighboring country rivals.

Indonesia: Borneo (Kalimantan) [PART 2]

One of the biggest islands in the planet which is worldly-known for its extremely lush and vast of primeval forest. The island also shares all 3 country lands at the same time: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei. But only one country has the largest territory for itself. It's Indonesia.

With 5 provinces in its territory, the heart of Borneo boasts biodiverse rainforest and home to wildlife including orangutans, sun bears, civets, fruit bats, etc. Also the homeland to the hill and forest-dwelling ethnic minority of Dayak people.

Most of foreigners only know Kalimantan (Borneo) as a rainforest or the orangutans. But actually it has more if we have much time to explore further. If you don't have much time to go travel around due to your work in office, so why don't spend your leisure time as voyeurs. LOL

Just sit tight, bro & sis.. you can witness the amazing world with your ass sticking to your chair/floor. So here are some photos of the off-beaten path travel destinations in Indonesian Borneo:
