: Exporting fresh durians to China, which is expected to commence in September, will not affect the market and increase in the price of the fruit in the local market.
“We guarantee that durian prices will not be expensive because for the local market, residents still have options including ‘durian kampung’. Besides, the durian season this time around is quite long, which means we expect plentiful fruit until September,” he told reporters after officiating the ‘Program Kendurian@Jualan Agro MADANI’ at Pasaraya AEON Bandaraya Melaka here today.
Elaborating further, he said that the first export of fresh durians to China will use the air or sea route, and also depends on the availability of supply as well as demand from the country.
