TROPICAL FLOWERS AND GARDEN PLANTS OF MALAYSIA *****In my garden there is a large place for sentiment. My garden of flowers is also my garden of thoughts and dreams. The thoughts grow as freely as the flowers, and the dreams are as beautiful. ~Abram L. Urban
Are there old people there who use this betel nut, put in a leaf plus lime and then chew the mixture producing red color in the mouth? Here we call that mixture as "nganga". Our generation don't do that anymore, but they say it is healthy. When in Taiwan, i realized we export green betel nut there!
Chewing of betel leaves was very common in Malaysia a long time ago. Now, very few people do that but they still sell the betel nuts, lime and leaves set at certain Indian flower streets.
