This early impression of Orang Asli Perak extracting poisonous sap of Upas/Ipoh Tree (Antiaris toxicaria).
However, the sap is harmless unless special ritual perform by men of tribe. While performing the ceremony, he cannot eat meat and fish! By mixing the Ipoh sap and Legop roots in fresh bamboo cutting, a shaman will create powerful poison that can be lethal for anything.
