Karim,
Don't change your information yet as I am not sure and need some help and a confirmation on this one. However, my best guess is that this is a female Grey-capped Woodpecker - Dendrocopos canicapillus aurantiiventris. As I said - wait a while for others to comment.

I agree with Steve. The race on Borneo is relatively distinctive due to its limited amount of white on the wing/mantle. - and a nice photo, too!

Thank you very much to both of you, Steve and Rasmus. I am beginning to know more of the birds name. Thank you again and both of you are appreciated.
