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.
