    Just looking at the flower, i came up with Anoectochilus sikkimensis....Infact, it all fits, i would say with confidence that this is A. sikkimensis.

    Thank you for your information.
    I found Anoectochilus papillosus more close but I'm still not sure.

    Nah, i dont think it quite resembles papillosus, the leaf paterning on papillosus looks as if it is typically intricate and gold, but this is silver and not as showy, just like a typical sikkimensis. Also the papillosus flowers dont quite resemble, the sepals dont seem to flare out like these ones are doing.
