Eyewitness Account
Sabah Forest Department’s deputy conservator, Arthur Chung, shed light on the incident, stating, “Due to the extremely hot weather today, an unexpected guest dropped by at the Keruing Cafe in RDC Sepilok, and helped himself selectively with whatever was found in the fridge and left without paying!” The incident was captured on camera by a staff member of the Rainforest Discovery Centre, adding to the hilarity and charm of the moment.
