RM100 is a thorn in the flesh of Musang King lovers


Bon appetit: Durian lover Livia Tee enjoying the Musang King in SS2, Petaling Jaya.

PETALING JAYA: Going for at least RM60 per kilo now, no one can dispute that the Musang King is the king of durian.

This means one has to fork out RM90 to RM120 for a fruit that weighs about 1.5kilos to 2kilos in Bentong – a place in Pahang known for producing the variety favoured for its creamier texture and bittersweet taste.
