SABAH GALLERY

 

This gallery comprises of photographs taken during my trip to Sabah, "Land Below The Wind" from 20 May 99 to 26 May 99. I went to Sabah to attend a synposium on herbal medicines. Following that, I went to climb Mount Kinabalu (South East Asia's highest peak) with a group of pharmacists from Malaysia and Sabah. The photographs of the Mount Kinabalu collections below are dedicated to all those who climbed the mountain with me .....
