Palm sugar and gula melaka are not the same. Gula melaka is made from the sap of the coconut tree (cocos nucifera) not the palmyra tree. The taste of gula melaka and other 'sugars' such as gula merah or jaggery derived from palm trees are radically different. Please do not merge the articles as it would be misleading.

[edit] Gula merah

Gula merah ("red sugar") or gula jawa in Indonesia is mostly not made from Borassus but from aren Arenga pinnata peduncles sap. User:Kembangraps from id: wikipedia Talk
