Beneath the Surface: Exploring Malaysia’s Caves

From the karst hills of Perlis to the depths of Sarawak, Malaysia’s caves hold stories millions of years in the making. We speak to Zarris Kem — cave explorer, environmentalist, and mapper — about the wonders beneath our feet, and what they reveal about nature, culture, and the urgent need for conservation.
