In view of the catastrophic bush fires happening across Australia, Echo Resorts in Sabah has pledged to donate 30% of  their hotel booking proceeds booked online to the Wildlife Rescue Australia (WIRES). 

Echo Resorts comprises Gayana Marine Resort and Bunga Raya Island Resort on Gaya Island and the newly opened Borneo Eagle Resort on Pulau Tiga in Sabah, East Malaysia. 30% of proceeds from all new bookings for Echo Resorts coming in from 7-31  January 2020 will be donated to WIRES. This is valid for stays booked till 30 June 2020 and applies only to bookings made through the official website: www.echoresorts.com .  All proceeds from the online Echo Store selling made-in-Borneo products at the Resorts  will also go towards WIRES.

WIRES is an organisation dedicated to actively rehabilitate and preserve Australian wildlife and inspire others to do the same. It has been estimated that half a billion animals have been killed in New South Wales alone with many more injured and homeless.

Gillian Tan, Echo Resorts Owner Representative, remarked, “We, at Echo Resorts, like everyone else around the world, are absolutely devastated at the loss of lives and animals caused by the raging fires in Australia. We hope that our proceeds will help in some way to contribute to the wildlife rescue efforts. Our hearts go out to Australia and we urge our guests to join us in this spirit of solidarity.”
