A relative of the hummingbird? Sort of looks like one. Interesting coloring... it almost looks "painted on". That's not really the phrase I want, but it resembles (very heavy) makeup to me.
Great catch. I'd just guess these guys aren't so easy to spot, coloring notwithstanding. Looks small, and fast. Always a challenge.
That pretty cool Tabib, the bird is either really small sandwiched between the leaves or the leaves are just that gigantic. It's a nice scene to take in.
Thanks ALL for your comments. That small bird is Common Tailorbird (Orthotomus sutorius) Size about 12cm. Constantly on the move, and hard to focus. It stayed a few seconds feeding on a small green grasshopper at that leaf.
The leaves are of Cempedak (Artocarpus champeden) 5–25 cm long and 2.5–12 cm wide
Really love your shot of the bird. I love how it's slightly concealed, going about its day, but its beautiful coloring still allows the viewer to spot him.

oh oh oh I love it!!!!!!
compared to the size of the foliage, the bird must b rather tiny.
That's a really nice capture amidst the leaves.
