Travelling to Borneo from USA.

My comment on this article. It mentioned that land travel is
difficult. It is not. It is more interesting and cheaper as well. You
can take air conditioned buses to all the large towns in Sabah. I no
longer travel by air for years.
Another alternative is to take the sea ferries especially in Sarawak.
This is one way of viewing the islands of Borneo. It is not that much
different from the rest of the world. It is only warmer and probably
less populated despite being near large towns.

My comment. The dangers of travelling in Malaysia is Dengue fever
which cannot be prevented by taking anti-malarial pills. So the best
protection is still anti-mosquito lotion.
