While on the plane back to Taipei from our break in Indonesia, I looked up at the map screen on the back of the seat in front of me. I was shocked never to have heard of any of these places!
- Palawan Trough
- Kota Kinabalu
- Bander Seri Begawan
- Miri
- Long Akah
- SULU SEA
- Sandakan
- Jolo
- Zamboanga
- Butuan
- Davao
- Koronadal
- CELEBS SEA
They sound like place names out of an Ursula K. Le Guin novel! I felt like I was looking down across the new cities built on Mars after it had been terraformed by Elon Musk. (Maybe I missed class on the day our Geography class covered SE Asia?)
