SINCE ITS INCEPTION IN 2000, ORANG UTAN ISLAND HAS PROGRESSED FROM BEING A SANCTUARY, WHERE VISITORS EXPERIENCED FIRST-HAND AWARENESS AND EDUCATION ON THE ORANGUTAN, TO A RECOGNIZED EX-SITU CONSERVATION FACILITY AND REFERRAL CENTER FOR THE ENDANGERED BORNEAN ORANGUTAN.
A WALK THROUGH THE SEMI-CIRCLE STEEL-FENCE TUNNEL ENCLOSURE IS A HUMBLING EXPERIENCE, WHERE WE HUMANS, SEEMINGLY IN A CAGE, CAN PEER OUT AND BE CAPTIVATED BY THE ORANGUTANS ROAMING FREE BEYOND IN THE TREES, ON THE GRASS, AND BY THE LAKE.
SCIENTISTS HAVE COME TO STUDY HOW ORANG UTAN ISLAND HAS MANAGED TO HAVE A POPULATION OF 24 ORANGUTANS TODAY FROM ONLY THREE IN 2000 AND THEY BELIEVE THE ENDEAVORS AT ORANG UTAN ISLAND WILL GREATLY ASSIST IN THE CONSERVATION OF THE BORNEAN ORANGUTAN.

NOT MUCH WAS HEARD OF THE THREE CONCUBINE LANES. IN JULY 2016, LONELY PLANET LISTED IPOH AS ONE OF THE BEST ASIAN DESTINATIONS TO VISIT. PHOTOS OF THE CONCUBINE LANES STARTED APPEARING IN NEWS ARTICLES.
