Rubber and Its Use

Rubber is said to be the native of Brazil, in South American. It is said that some of the sailors went with Columbus in his voyage of discovery found children playing with a kind of ball that could bounce. In 1736, a Frenchman discovered that it came from a tree. He was hence the pioneer of the rubber plantations.

Rubber trees were planted in Malaysia only recently. Rubber is called the “Green-gold” of Malaysia because the product earns millions of dollars annually for the country.

Rubbers planted by individuals are mostly small-holdings whereas companies own thousands of acres. A rubber estate is usually more than one hundred square acres. If it is less, it is called a small-holding.

The use of rubber are countless; it is used in almost everything that we are using. Airplanes, motor-cars, and motor-bicycles are impossibility, it is for rubber.
