Vast and eager market for durians in China, says Mohamad Sabu


KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia is focussing on China to export fresh durians because there is a vast market and interest there for the king of fruits, said Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu.

Imagine if 10% of their (China) citizens are eating durians, no matter how much durian we harvest here, it won’t be enough for our trade with them,” he said during Question Time in the Dewan Rakyat on Monday (July 1).
