I agree with Cylindera versicolor.
This species can also be found in Sepilok.

I love tiger beetles, what an impressive beetle, I love the colours. The last shot is incredible, there's so much detail in it.

Carabidae, Cicindelinae, Cicindelini. Looks for me like Cylindera sp. and might be Cylindera versicolor?
If you agree I would post it on one of my facebook group to get a confirmation or correction and some more information. Certainly with a credit of you.
