    Google Lens suggests it’s probably a Yellow-Billed Stork, or possibly a Milky Stork

        True, although it looks (from the similar images on the web when I added Kuala Lumpur) like they may be in a zoo or similar bird collection. I tried “yellow billed stork vs. milky stork” and there’s something about one having shades of pink, but I forget which. Never seen either myself, even in a zoo.

      Looking at Wikipedia entries, Google’s ID by appearance seems good (but might also be a Painted Stork). However, Yellow-Billed Storks are African, and Milky Storks South-East Asia, so given the OPs location, the latter seems more likely.

      I find the Cornell Lab’s Merlin Photo ID very good, but it would be too much time & effort to download the SE Asia pack for one photo :)
