Question 2
Read the following text. Then, answer questions (a) (j).

The Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre (SORC) is one of the

biggest and most well-known orangutan sanctuaries in Malaysia.
Located close to Sandakan, the rehabilitation centre was founded in
1964 with the aim of returning orphaned, injured or displaced
orangutans into the wild. The Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre
falls under the administration of the Wildlife Department of Sabah. The
ground where the rehabilitation centre is located is part of the 4,300
hectare Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve.

At this centre, you are able to see the orangutans in their rehabilitation
programmes. During their rehabilitation, the animals rely heavily on the
help of the people who work at the centre. The orangutans are divided
into groups and the most independent ones are released into the wild
after a certain period of time. Today, up to 75 orangutans are roaming
freely in the reserve.

The centre attracts tourists and researchers alike, giving them the opportunity to watch the
orangutan up close in their natural habitat. Visitors can catch a glimpse of these gentle creatures
via a boardwalk which leads to a viewing gallery and feeding platform where the apes are fed milk
and bananas twice a day at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. by rangers. Feeding times also attracts long-tailed
macaques to the area.

The centre opens daily from 9 a.m. till 4 p.m.. Admission fee for those above 17 years old is
RM5 for a Malaysian and RM30 for a foreigner. A Malaysian aged below 17 years old will be
charged RM2 while a non-Malaysian, RM15. Visitors who would like to use their cameras,
camcorders and smart phones will be charged an additional RM10.00.

The centre is relatively easy to access from the town centre and should not be missed by those
visiting Sabah.
