| Towering over Kuala Lumpur's thriving commercial, shopping and business district, the 38-story Sheraton Imperial hotel occupies a prime location near the convention center and the 88-story Petronas Twin Towers, arguably the world's tallest buildings. Business travelers, families, couples and friends also will discover near the hotel the upscale shops, restaurants, wine bars and night spots of Bintang Walk and Asean Heritage Row. The Sheraton Imperial combines modern technology with polished timber, Malaysian architecture, Italian marble, indoor palm trees and original art, especially in the four-story atrium. The Sheraton's staff of walking encyclopedias helps tourists plan itineraries and then directs them to the hotel's complimentary downtown shuttles. |

| On one of your trips outside the city, catch a glimpse of 'rubber tapping', an age old art of extracting the sap out of the rubber tree. Rubber is one of the top exports of Malaysia. |
| Rubber Tapping |
To extract the sap, a rubber tapper must first remove a
thin layer of bark along a downward half spiral on the
tree trunk. As the cut is made, latex begins oozing from
the newly injured laticifers and began running down the
spiral cut. At the bottom of the spiral cut a spout is
inserted and the latex flow is directed into a collection
cup tied around the tree trunk. Each day a new thin
layer of bark is removed lowering the spiral slightly.
Once each tree is tapped, the worker waits until
morning to collect the latex. Opposite sides of the tree
trunk is tapped allowing the other side to heal over.
This tapping panel will yield latex for up to 5 years.
