Population justification: The global population size has not been quantified, but the species is described as generally uncommon, although fairly common in Taman Negara and frequent in most of Borneo, except for Sabah (del Hoyo et al. 2007).

Trend justification: Declines are suspected to be occurring as a result of habitat loss throughout the range, although data on the precise magnitude of these trends are lacking.
