Short Communication: Notes on a new distribution record of the Critically Endangered Sunda Pangolin (Manis javanica) in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo

Many language experts and researcher emphasised the crucial awareness and intervention to accentuate listening comprehension. However, listening skill is the least prominent and seldom tackled compared to other language skills. Listening is the key to an effective communication in university and in...
