Discovering Orangutan Sanctuary
Orang-utans remain only on the islands of Borneo (Sarawak and Sabah ) and Sumatra in South East Asia. They are the only great apes to be found outside Africa. No one should come to Sarawak without seeing the Orang-utans of Semmengoh. The sanctuary is about 30 minutes drive from Kuching.The centre was established in 1975 for the rehabilitation of confiscated wild animals and now has a large number of semi wild Orang-utans who can be seen at their twice daily feeding times.
