Remember:
The climate in Indonesian Borneo (Kalimantan) in january ranges from tolerable to bad depending on the region and city.
That month is not the best month to go to in Kalimantan (Borneo). The weather in Batuampar, Betung Kerihun National Park, Bidukbiduk, Mempawah, Singkawang, Palangkaraya, Muara Teweh, Puruk Cahu, Putussibau, Pemangkat, Bontang, Gunung Palung National Park, Borneo (Pontianak), Pangkalan Bun, Kutai National Park, Danau Sentarum National Park, Sebatik, Tanjung Puting National Park and Sampit is quite correct.
