Another unknown Begonia from Sarawak

Growing on a steep slope at the edge of a black pepper plantation. Any ID suggestions welcome.

No idea what it is, but I want one. So many great plants so little space!

Hi LS,
Thanks for your message. This is indeed a pretty plant.

I do not see too much Begonias in Irian, but orchids are plentiful. I have sent you a few jpegs, maybe you can help me to identify.

That book covers Peninsula M'sia only.

Ruth Kiew has several publications on Sarawak Begonias but I cannot find one matching this plant. Maybe its a juvenile pattern of something more common ....
