actually, i dont know also, haven check much on the softbills, more to the parrot side for me yea ? haha. most birds can be cuddled given the proper training and familiarity with the handler, depends on individual birds too !

beautiful bird! I understand that last time this type of bird can be purchase from bird shops .. but now it is banned from selling liao.. is that the case?

that is what I heard from the bird shop.. but they say there is no problem to keep one of this bird.. as the ban is on selling, not on owning one

please advise

This is a Swainson's Toucan, CITES II softbill, it can be sold, purchased and kept. Depends on what species the bird is. Any bird which is CITES I cannot be be sold for commercial means. Hornbills are banned because most of em are in the category CITES I or otherwise known as Appendix I.
