Neptis sp.
From Wikipedia: Neptis is a large genus of butterflies of Old World tropics subtropics[2]. They are commonly called sailer butterflies or sailers, or more precisely typical sailers to distinguish them from the related blue sailer (Pseudoneptis).
Seen at Lake Lingkat near the town of Lempur on the edge of the Kerinci Seblat National Park, Sumatra, Indonesia.

Thanks again, Atul! Wow, all the subspecies look so similar to my untrained eye!
this is a Sailer butterfly..... Neptis sp. (not sure which though) Family Nymphalidae.
Wish you had another pic showing its wing patterns :-)
