You're welcome pamsai. This would also be a Dry Season Form similar to this spotting - http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/753....

@Ashish, pls check if the ID I suggested is correct (M. leda). I'm having second thoughts when I browsed your Sulawesi link. Seems wing shape is more of a M.phedima - http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/butterflies/neo....

It's clearly a Nymphalid, but I'm not sure which one.
