Nevertheless, to date, there are few products which really display Malaysia local design style. Recenlty, plants and oil palm which are cultivated in Malaysia are used as a new greens in furniture material.
  When we look at the lifestyle of Malaysian, we will knew that the ourdoor is a part of their living space. Base on it, I proposed  rocking chairs which are designed for relaxation time in Malaysia.
