Borneo is an island, not a country ...
the north part of the island consisting of Sabah and Sarawak, both States of the Malaysian Federation, Brunei - the independent nation - and on the south side Kalimantan as part of Indonesia. (I was a frequent visitor to Kuching, Miri, Brunei, Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan in recent years, when my son lived on the island).
