Not sure how true this is... but recently i've read plenty articles to highlight this
"Suprising Serpent news"...anyway... Photographs have allegedly been taken of a giant serpentine animal, apparently a snake, near Ulu Rajang on the Baleh River in Borneo;
which is also partly of our very own Rajang River of East Malaysia. The images, taken by Sibu, a member of a disaster team monitoring flood regions by helicopter, has sparked Internet chatter and media debate.
Reportedly the photographs of the huge snake were taken at 5.30 pm, on January 31, 2009, at one of the Sungai Baleh tributaries from the helicopter. [But indeed, they are old photos, which have been floating around the internet since at least 2007. See YouTube url noted in "Comments," below.]

Now this news from the rain forests of Borneo slithers into our awareness.
