Thanks, @Chun. Saw several of them during the night walk. Too many of them to pin down to exact specie?

I have several photographs of these bugs. This species seems to be widespread and common in SE Asia. There are also quite a lot of online photographs of these bugs but no identification is known yet. The closest ID I can get is Pyrrhocoroidea which Bayucca has pointed out too.

Thanks, @bayucca for the ID suggestion :)

Same ones, ID as Pyrrhocoridae or Rhopalidae. http://www.flickr.com/photos/lereeves/8120695807/ http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-AlSBGs1RLhM/UgAYPZww9VI/AAAAAAAAI4s/XpIyyRA2arY/s400/DSC_9521.JPG http://ronorenstein.blogspot.ch/2013/10/sarawak-eagles-darners-and-sunbirds.html I am still not sure what it is...
