“Vast concessions in #Malaysia's forests threaten millions of hectares of rich natural habitats and risk the country's commitment to 50 per cent forest cover, a report warned Tuesday (May 28).
NGO RimbaWatch said its analysis of concessions in the country's forest showed up to 3.2 million hectares could be slashed, potentially unleashing enormous carbon emissions and compromising key animal habitats.”

Where to get all-day (karipap) in ? Seems not as widely available these days, other than some early morning nasi lemak vendors. And I don't mean the fancy $5+ ones from restaurants either.

@jkn Shell and Family Mart have decent big currypuffs that are usually avaliable for most of the day. Ikea has good currypuffs in the cafe section.

Sunday morning walk! We spotted monitor lizards, macaques, kingfishers, herons and a dead snake. We are wondering what type of plants these are.

@hishgraphics The last one is probably Simpoh Air (Dillenia suffruticosa) a common plant in swampy and wet ground.

I guess I shouldn't have been surprised that Sabah also has a bamboo pole dance similar to the Philippines' Tinikling or Singkil. This one is called Magunatip.

This visit is perfectly timed 👌

The INS Delhi (guided missile destroyer), INS Shakti(fleet tanker), and INS Kiltan (anti-submarine corvette) reached the #Changi naval base in the city-state on Monday, the Indian Navy spokesperson said in a post on X.

The three ships will leave for #Malaysia on Thursday and then visit the #Philippines.

@liztai There’s also a question of how they trim the trees too, and how the soil around the tree is maintained. It’s quite complicated; used to get a headache reading reports by certified arborists back when I was in civil service.

@cydonian from what I heard they covered the roots with cement and that caused root rot

I think the scariest thing is I often use this particular monorail line. Usually on Wednesdays. If it had been tomorrow...
Unfortunately one person died in this incident 😔

@ubdvtlab Does that tree solely rely on the hummingbird to reproduce based on the shape of these flowers?

TankerTrackers reporting a possible #OilSpill near #Malaysia: We've noticed a 60km long spill off the coast of Kuantan, Malaysia in today's satellite imagery. Based on the two imagery sources we've compared against (taken only 3 minutes apart), the spill may have reached shore 5 hours ago.

There are no juicy #fruits in #Malaysia (consequently, no local fruit juice).

Somebody please prove me wrong, this is driving me nuts.

@rakyat@hachyderm.io avatar

@jkn I think it makes sense cuz juicy fruits usually grow in dry places to tempt thirsty animals haha. Here maybe the creatures don’t care as much about juicy stuff since water is everywhere.
