To quote from WWF:

"There is only one place remaining in Southeast Asia where tropical rainforests can still be conserved on a very large scale – a place where endangered species such as orangutans, elephants and rhinos, and countless other undiscovered species continue to thrive.

WWF aims to assist Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia to conserve the Heart of Borneo – a total of 240,000 sq km (that’s 2 million hectares!) of equatorial rainforests – through a network of protected areas and sustainably-managed forest, and through international co-operation led by the Bornean governments and supported by a global effort."

Oh yea. Another awesome project.

And here's a tribute entry by Dr Bala from Planet of the Monyets to WWF Malaysia: Earth Hour - The Panda Rules

p/s: Irrelevant to the subject, I would like to express my gratitude to the World Federation of Scientists (WFS) and Dr Bala :)
