Malay island (6)

I believe the answer is:

borneo

(Other definitions for borneo that I've seen before include "Island in the western Pacific" , "Large E. Indies island" , "Lange island of the Malay archipelago" , "Island shared by Malaysia and Indonesia" , "Third largest island in the world" .)

I've seen this clue in the Wall Street Journal and the King Feature Syndicate.
