Of particular interest is the “puzzle-like” pattern of the individual tree crowns separated by gaps and outlined against the sky. This phenomenon is called “Crown Shyness”. The reason for its name is because the leaf tips of the Dryobalanops aromatica appear to be shy towards their own kind, hence forming the gap.

This tree is also known as kapur tree and has a nice-smelling exudate known as camphor, one of the main component of making ointment. The ointment is used for stomach massages after child delivery.

The Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM), situated in Kepong, is a destination not to be missed by nature enthusiasts visiting the capital city, Kuala Lumpur. It nests in the satellite city of Petaling Jaya, about 16 km northwest of the capital city. Established in 1929, FRIM stands as a premier institution in tropical forest research locally and internationally. Sprawling over 600 hectares, this tropical forest is home to a rich variety of flora and fauna with an estimated 15,000 plant species, which to a non-botanist, might just seem like an expanse of greenery.
