Alright, this is for sharing of your observation experience. Or, if you are arranging gatherings, star-gazing expeditions or just want some company to go observing together, you can shout it out here.
I did a short duration star gazing while resting. I was on my way to Low's peak (4095 metre). Sky was hazy with moon at zenith. In the east i managed to see orion, Venus etc. Was debating whether to set up the camera on piles of rock of something but decided not to.
Saw milkyway and Sco while at base camp near Park HQ (1500 metre)
Brings back memories. I was also making my way to Low's peak in 1996 when I saw Comet Hyakutake @ 3 am!

may not be exactly what you are looking for but malsingmap.com has most major roads in east malaysia. with the right software, you can superimpose/stack the tracks on to a light polution map.
haha yeah sabah has good skies indeed. i didnt make it to the top; it was quite cloudy that day also when i went last year. i remember the scintillating reflections of the milky way in the water along the sabah coastline near kota kinabalu; really nice =)
