The Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM) was established at a time when Malaysia's lush greenery was mostly intact. However the forward thinking plans of the institute in recreating a forest ecosystem from the beginning served them well at the end of the century. The FRIM was established through an Act of Parliament and has been and continues to be responsible for promoting a sustainable development and management in terms of eco forestry, optimal use of forest resources, developing research and application through modern technology not only within Malaysia but internationally too. The Institute is responsible for a wide acreage of lush green forests in Malaysia and the most notable canopy like path within the institute premises. The suspension bridge swaying 30 metres above ground level is an excellent way to get a bird's eye view of the beautiful surrounding scenery of the forests as well as the city. The institute not only recreates the natural forest habitation but also has been responsible for the growth and development of many rare forms of flora and fauna. The park and premises is open to the public from 8am to 6pm each day and visitors are only charged a nominal amount. The Forest Research Institute of Malaysia performs a number of services amongst which are establishing a herbarium with over 200,000 varieties, creating an arboreta which is ideal for forestry education, offering various training programmes from wood identification to landscaping to many more, bamboo and rattan product manufacturing, a well stocked library and many other connected services. It is one of the most developed and dedicated institutes committed to research, training, development and preservation as well as regeneration.
