Original range is thought to consist of the Malay Peninsula (north to southeastern Myanmar), Sumatra, Java, and Bali, and it has long been established in a semi-feral condition northward throughout most of Thailand, into Laos, and east across Cambodia and southern Vietnam, the Philippines, northern and eastern Borneo, Sulawesi, and many other islands of eastern Indonesia.<\/p>

Farther from its original range, introduced populations are established: in the Pacific on southern Taiwan, Hawaii, Tahiti, the Marquesas, and New Caledonia; in the Indian Ocean on the Seychelles, Mauritius, R\u00e9union, Rodrigues, and Diego Garcia; and in the Atlantic on St. Helena.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
