My next trip is to Sabah in Borneo. I'd like to know if anyone can advise me about the type of AC adaptor which Australians need to use there.

Google is your friend (or should be...)
from: http://www.completeborneo.com/
"Domestic power supply 230/240volt 50Hz using British type flat 3 pin plugs."

Thanks for the research, Michael. I'm usually a Google hound but, on this occasion I opted to be sociable and invited member feedback. Australians are renowned for their travel abroad and I was hoping to hear from someone who had been to Sabah recently. It is probably no coincidence that they use British plugs since Sabah was British North Borneo for a time until 1963. ( I'm currently reading Redmond O'Hanlon's book Into the Heart of Borneo.)

Hi Babu, I have been to Sabah before. Yes, they use British style plug head. It's a 3-point (top vertical = ground, left horizontal = life, right horizontal = neutral). Hope that helps ;)
