Brunei's
bountiful forests The rainforests of Brunei are among the richest and most diverse eco-systems in the world. To find out more, NSS members recently made a field trip to the sultanate's Ulu Temburong National Park using the Kuala Belalong Field Study Centre as their base. Nick Baker reports on their first hand report, and Tan Ju Lin on Birding in Belalong. With lots of colourful photos from the trip, and tips on going there.
Wonderful
weeds Weeds are not always destructive or ugly. Indeed, some like Cupid's Shaving Brush (Emilia sonchifolia) can be pretty with lovely flowers. What's more, they have their many uses as natural remedies. Leong Tzi Ming and Hugh T. W. Tan find out more about this lowly but versatile weed.
Mangrove
butterflies of Pasir Ris Right next to the neighbourhood park of Pasir Ris is a pocket of mangroves that has become a habitat for some unusual butterflies as Simon Chan discovers.
Yunnan—A
botanist's paradise China's eco-tourist province of Yunnan enjoys an amazing diversity of plants, some of which are endemic and found nowhere else in the world. Wee Yeow Chin reports with photos of the scenic views.
