Any 'Asia hand' won't need long to come up with the Asian country characterized by these three words. In fact, I'm quite confident any two of the three words will do. As the only truly Christian country in Asia (90% of the population is Christian), ...

Into the heart of Borneo

I left you last time after the two months in Indonesia, just having arrived in Miri, on the Malaysian part of the island of Borneo. Here I met my friends Derek and Katelien, who have been living in Miri for 3 years now. I had always said I would ...
