Best Volunteering Opportunities in Malaysia

Tzea Sawchuk - Volunteer in Sun Bear Conservation Project in Borneo, Malaysia
"I had an amazing time volunteering at the Sun Bear Conservation Centre. Spending time looking after all the bears needs was very fulfilling. I learned so much about the importance of the world’s smallest bear and how a change needs to be done for them to continue to survive in the Jungle."

Iara Tonidandel - Volunteer in Sun Bear Conservation Project in Borneo, Malaysia
"Volunteering challenges yourself, breaks concepts, makes us wear a different lens so we can understand where we are, what we need and what we can accomplish. In Malaysia, it was no different to me. I had an excellent opportunity and life change experience. I was welcomed, guided and felt part of a team of very generous and professional people."

Kinabatangan River Cruise - During the Weekend, You Can Opt for a Day Trip and Go for the Kinabatangan River Cruise. This river has a length of 560 kilometers and stretches through half of Eastern Sabah. Alongside the riverbanks, there is an abundance of wildlife. During a river cruise, you will have a chance to spot the rare orangutan, the pygmy elephant, proboscis monkeys, and saltwater crocodiles.
