Starting in early 2017, BORA relies on Malaysian governmental funding to sustain its work to care for Tam and Iman (Puntung having passed away on 4 June 2017). The funding allows us to do all the basic tasks necessary, but does not cover engagement with Indonesia, nor maximising the frequency of harvesting sperm and eggs for continued in-vitro fertilization attempts. Contributions to BORA allow those two elements of our work to continue.

Here are some of the ways you can support this effort.

Your funds can help BORA find a scientific breakthrough as well as continue our attempts to engage with Indonesia on a joint programme.

Your skills and time can provide invaluable assistance to us in a variety of areas where we need help.

Your voice can be the difference between the survival of an ancient genus or its extinction.
