The scars of war cut deep. Even the landscape of one of the most remote and undeveloped islands on earth has been shaped by the destructive power of mankind. In World War II, when Japan sought control over the island of Borneo, they waged a military campaign against the British and Dutch there called the Battle for Borneo. And it was brutal.

But to see the life and beauty that has grown out of a site where this horrific bombing took place is… unbelievable.

We get the opportunity to delve into the history of this island, and see for ourselves what has become of this WWII bomb crater.
