If you want to avoid stickiness, as everyone has pointed out, wash the rice before you boil it to remove the starch.

I remember my mother telling me she read a recipe by a Chinese cook who mentioned her mother told her that traditional Chinese cooking began with "Wash the rice in nine waters."

Chinese cooking tends to have less "gloopy" rice. Japanese more.
