Malaysia committed to export durian to China


DURIAN could well be called "the king of fruit" because of the price of its high-quality grades.

The types of durian in Malaysia include Musang King, D24, Tekka, Red Prawn, Black Thorn, IOI and XO. Durian has gained appeal in southern and eastern China partly because of its high nutritional value and widespread popularity of its derivatives, such as ice cream, cakes, snacks and dumplings.
