Pictures of Borneo Paradise Resort, Kota Kinabalu - Papar highway, Kinarut, Sabah
June 18th, 2007Borneo Paradise is a resort on the KK-Papar highway.
The founder, Joseph Anthony Munang is a true adventurer: he’s probably the only Kadazandusun who served in the US Navy during World War II and if I remember correctly, spent almost 2 years in the Pacific Ocean (mid 1943 to early 1946), crossing the Equator 12 times.
Each room has a name. This room’s name, in the Kadazandusun language, sounds approximately like “being urinated upon”?
View of the sea: this cone-shaped island looks to be straight out of a horror movie:
Paradise lost? Decapitated concrete buffalo is an eyesore:
I know this is a resort, but no swimming anyway [in certain parts]:
